Join us for Southampton’s most highly anticipated event of the year, the Polar Bear Plunge! 2024 marks 21 years of gettin’ freezin’ for a great reason!!

On Saturday, December 14th, over 300 of our neighbors will take the plunge and more than 800 people will come out and support them! 

All proceeds directly benefit our year-round Food Pantry and Assistance Programs, that currently serve more than 2,800 families in the Town of Southampton. This year’s goal is to raise $350,000 – we can make this happen with your generous support. 

The generosity from donors like you allows us to bring relief to our neighbors in need, whether it is providing food for a local family, medical transportation for cancer patients, or assisting with rent gaps and utility bills.

Come on out to support one of the best events of the year!
