The 2022 Paddy Plunge is on!

THIS YEAR WE'LL BE MOVING THE PLUNGE TO WILLARD BEACH IN SOUTH PORTLAND TO ALLOW FOR PLENTY OF SPACE FOR PLUNGERS.

Take the Plunge for a Good Cause

Join us for the annual Paddy Plunge

Every year, we kick off our St. Patrick's Day celebrations with a plunge into the ice cold waters to raise funds for the Portland Firefighters Children's Burns Foundation.

How does it work?

The Paddy Plunge is the Portland Firefighters Children's Burn Foundation's biggest fundraiser of the year, and you don't want to miss it. Want to participate? You can raise money for a participant for the chance to see them take the plunge. By taking part in the Paddy Plunge, you can:

  • Raise money for an excellent cause
  • Help burn victims find the support they need
  • Laugh while participants regret their choice to swim in ice-cold water

For good, freezing fun, reach out to the Portland Firefighters Children's Burn Foundation now to learn more about participating in the 2022 Paddy Plunge.


A tradition now for the last 17 years, raising over $375,000 to date, this year's event takes place on March 17, 2022 when our brave plungers will face the cold and jump into the water.

We will take the plunge at 8:00am, share a photo on our Facebook page!
