Over 91,000 rubber ducks plunge into Chicago’s river in the annual Ducky Derby—a wild fundraiser for Special Olympics Illinois. For just $10 or $30 for a pack of six, you “adopt” a duck and help raise millions for athletes’ needs like meals and medals. Since 2005, the event has raised nearly $5 million, including over $480K this year. Winners get an SUV or $2,500 cash—making it fun for the city and vital for those who need it most.
