This is it. Skinny Dip Day is tomorrow, Saturday, July 11, and this is your last chance to get on the board with Team Planet Nude before we take the plunge.
If you’ve been meaning to donate all season and haven’t gotten around to it, now’s the moment. It takes thirty seconds, every dollar goes straight to the Fistula Foundation, and you don’t have to dip, send a photo, or buy a thing to be part of it. Just give.
And if you are dipping tomorrow, wherever you are, a lake, the ocean, a river, a backyard pool, we want to see it. Snap a photo or jot down a few words about your dip and send it to evan@planetnude.co. We’ll feature it in our big post-event wrap-up, and for every photo of this year’s merch, I’ll donate an extra $25 to the cause.
Let’s finish strong. See you in the water. 🪐
Why we dip
Skinny Dip Day is a fundraiser for the Fistula Foundation, which provides free surgeries to women suffering from obstetric fistula, a childbirth injury that causes chronic incontinence and deep social isolation. It’s a devastating condition, and it’s curable. Just $624 covers one full surgery and gives a woman back her health, her dignity, and her place in her community. As SkinnyDipDay.org founder Thomas Francine likes to point out, it’s a cause with a fitting overlap: it cures women of some of the most severe body shame in the world. That’s not a bad thing for a community built on body freedom to get behind.
How you can help
Here’s how you can help Team Planet Nude make it count this year.
Donate. This is the most direct way to support the mission, and you don’t need to dip or send a photo to do it. A donation on our team fundraiser page puts you on the team, full stop. Every dollar goes to the Fistula Foundation. And as a thank-you, anyone who gives $100 or more gets a free one-year paid membership to Planet Nude. Just email me from the address you subscribe with to redeem.
Take a dip. On or around July 11, get naked and get in some water. A lake, the ocean, a river, a kiddie pool in the backyard, it all counts. Snap a photo or write up a quick reflection and send it to evan@planetnude.co, and we’ll feature it in our big post-event wrap-up.
Grab some merch. This year’s collection features a brand-new original design by the wonderful Zaftig Pink, on tanks, tees, stickers, mugs, and water bottles. And for the collectors out there, the original designs from 2024 and 2025 are still available too, so you can complete the set. 100% of the proceeds go to the Fistula Foundation. Plus, for every photo we receive of someone wearing this year’s merch while taking their dip, I’ll personally donate an extra $25 to our fundraiser.
Let’s make it our best year yet
That’s the last you'll hear from me before the big day, and I appreciate you bearing with all the noise this season. It's a short campaign for a worthy cause, and our community has proven what a small, joyful group can do when it decides to show up. Three years in, this is a tradition I'm proud of. Let's make it our best one yet.🪐
