Polar Plunge 2025

Support the 2025 Canadian Geographic Polar Plunge!

This year we are joined by notable Canadians, explorers, adventurers and RCGS Fellows. The #CanGeoPolarPlunge will help the Society raise important funding for the rich storytelling and engaging interviews that take place under the banner of Canadian Geographic and the Explore podcast.

Our goal is to raise $50,000! With your help we can continue to expand Canadians’ knowledge of our country’s diverse human and physical landscapes, better preparing them for an uncharted future.

Be Bold. Go Cold. Go Canada

What better way to show your Canadian pride than sponsoring a bunch of otherwise sensible Canadians to jump into freezing water across Canada?!!? 
I support the Canadian Geographic Polar Plunge because of the nation building tools CanGeo brings to the table, whether through storytelling, the Explore podcast, photography, expedition grants and education programs. Canadian Geographic helps us to understand what makes Canada tick, and why we are this incredible and unique northern beacon of nature, environment, democracy, culture and more. So please give what you can. It's a great way to proudly wave the Canadian flag.

Thank you to my Sponsors
