Join the Friends of the Board
If you’re interested in supporting SOC, but aren’t looking for a regular commitment, Friends of the Board is for you! Friends of the Board are kept up to date about Associate Board volunteering, fundraising and social events and opportunities. They help out whey they are able and have no fundraising or engagement requirements. Friends of the Board generally attend at least one Special Olympics Chicago Associate Board event per year.
UPDATE: For 2023 Polar Plunge, SOCAB raised $33,406!
Donate to the Associate Board’s 2023 Chicago Polar Plunge team
Each year the Associate Board along with their family and friends join together as their team Young, Wild & Freeze to take the Plunge into Lake Michigan to support thousands of athletes of Special Olympics Chicago! We’re doing this again on Sunday, March 5, and we can’t wait!
Thanks to everyone who made our 2022 plunge such a success! We raised over $31,000 as a team!
