Start the New Year by Granting Wishes at A Wish Come True’s 22nd Annual Polar Plunge Challenge

Start your New Year with a chill that warms hearts! A Wish Come True invites the community to ring in 2026 at the 22nd Annual Freezin’ for a Reason Polar Plunge Challenge on January 1, 2026, at Easton’s Beach in Newport, Rhode Island. 

Join thousands of brave plungers who will dive into the cold Atlantic at 12:00 PM sharp to help grant magical wishes and provide much-needed resources to local families who have a child struggling with a life-threatening illness.

A Wish Come True Executive Director Mary-Kate O’Leary said numerous local families have benefitted from their work and significant contributions from the public.

“The Polar Plunge is always an amazing day full of hope and inspiration,” she said. “When the community comes together to participate, it shows our wish families they are supported, loved, and never alone during this difficult time.”

Every dollar raised helps A Wish Come True support children living in Rhode Island, Southeastern and Central Massachusetts, and Eastern Connecticut. This year’s plunge highlights wish kids like Nicholas, an 11-year-old from Jamestown, RI, who is battling cancer. Nicholas has been undergoing intensive treatment at Hasbro Children’s and in Boston Children’s Hospital for specialized radiation. Despite the challenges, he remains a sweet, positive kid who loves the Boston Celtics and dreams of a special Celtics experience with his family. 

With more than 5,000 attendees, the Polar Plunge has become one of Rhode Island’s favorite New Year’s Day traditions. Whether you’re plunging solo, joining a team, or cheering from the shore, your participation helps grant heartfelt wishes for local children with a life-threatening illness. New this year — individuals who raise $100 will receive a Polar Plunge hat, and those who raise $500 will earn a cozy Polar Plunge hoodie too as a thank-you for their support. Be sure to sign up online by January 1 to qualify for these incentives.

Register today at https://p2p.onecause.com/polarplunge and take the plunge for wishes! Together, we can start 2026 with a splash that truly warms hearts.

Dogtopia – Dog Daycare, Boarding, Spa & Wellness

Dogtopia of Franklin Village

At Dogtopia, we believe your pup deserves the absolute best in care, safety, and play. Whether you’re dropping off for a few hours of play, an overnight stay, or a relaxing spa treatment, Dogtopia is your dog’s home away from home. Our dog daycare provides a safe, supervised, and engaging environment where dogs can enjoy off-leash play in spacious playrooms designed for their comfort. Each playroom is separated by size and temperament, ensuring every pup is paired with the right friends for safe socialization. Our highly trained Canine Coaches are always on hand to encourage good behavior, monitor interactions, and provide lots of love and attention. Dogtopia isn’t just about play — it’s about wellness, too. A day at Dogtopia helps your dog stay active, burn off energy, and return home happy and relaxed. To support overall health, we offer the DASH Activity Collar — a daycare-approved smart collar. DASH tracks your dog’s activity levels, rest, and wellness, giving you valuable insights into their health and behavior both at Dogtopia and at home. It’s another way we make sure your pup is not only having fun, but thriving. Our boarding services give dogs a chance to enjoy all-day play and restful nights under the care of our trusted team. And if your dog needs a little pampering, our spa services include baths, brush-outs, nail trims, and more, so they’ll look and feel their best. As pet parents ourselves, we know safety and transparency matter. That’s why every Dogtopia location is equipped with webcams, allowing you to check in on your pup throughout the day. Our facilities are sanitized with pet-safe cleaning products, and our staff is trained in canine behavior, first aid, and safety protocols. At Dogtopia, we’re passionate about giving dogs the love, exercise, and socialization they need to thrive — while giving pet parents peace of mind. Discover why so many families trust us as their dog’s second home.
