Jen Kramer's Fundraising Page
Crazy? Yes. Worthwhile? Completely.
March 7th, 2010 is the 10th Annual Chicago Polar Plunge. Looking to break all personal fundraising records in celebration of the 10th anniversary this year. Any chance I can raise more than $20,000? I'm out to try!
Jen (Dopey) and Gretchen (Doc) as part of the Seven Dwarves plunging in 2007.
