CSEA takes the (Polar) Plunge CSEA teams are again participating in Polar Plunge events to help support Special Olympics of New York. CSEA has a long relationship with the Special Olympics as the union represents nearly 20,000 workers in the developmental disabilities field. President’s Polar Cap Award To encourage CSEA members to get involved in this grassroots, voluntary project, President Danny Donohue established the President’s Polar Cap Award to stimulate a friendly rivalry between CSEA’s regions. The region that raises the most money through Polar Plunge participation each year is recognized at CSEA’s Annual Meeting. The award is displayed in the winning region office for the duration of the champ’s reign. Donations submitted throughout the season until April 15 determine the winner.
