Plunge for Patients
The Plunge for Patients is a fund-raiser that benefits the Johns Hopkins Patient and Family Fund by assisting patients and their families with expenses not covered by medical insurance. The event is held in Wildwood, New Jersey and is hosted by Morey's Piers, "America's Great Boardwalk Experience." Participants can register to run or swim in whatever race they choose, or simply make the trip to the ocean to attend a beach party with other cancer patients and families. Athletes will also be treated to a post-race beach party after the events! If you are interested in registering for the Plunge or would like to make a pledge, please contact Viki Anders at 410-502-5395 or andervi@jhmi.edu.
