State Collection Service Inc., an ACA International member company based in Madison, Wisconsin, recently participated in “Freezin’ for a Reason,” a Polar Plunge event that raised money for Special Olympics.
Through the generous donations of State’s staff, clients and partners— as well as a 100% match from State—the team raised nearly $23,000 to support Special Olympics athletes.
The State team set a goal of raising the most funds at the Madison jump—and they succeeded. Additionally, multiple team members ranked in the top 10 of individual fundraisers.
“Our team dove into the icy waters in support of amazing athletes, exemplifying the power of community, resilience, and passion,” said Tim Haag, State’s president and chief executive officer. “This is one of my favorite events each year, and I am proud of how enthusiastically our team and their families support Special Olympics.”
“Captaining our Polar Plunge team each year is an honor as the event demonstrates the power of community and courage,” said Jake Richards, State’s EBO director and team captain. “The energy at this event is awe-inspiring and motivates me to live outside my comfort zone year-round!”
