Cruise 4 Kids presents Teddy Ball 2025. A high-energy charity holiday celebration that brings together San Diego's finest to make a difference in the lives of sick and underprivileged children in our community. At Teddy Ball, we believe that every child deserves a little extra comfort and joy during the holiday season. That's why each guest is required to bring a new stuffed teddy bear, which we collect and distribute to multiple organizations, including Autism Tree Project Foundation, Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito, Miracle Babies, Easter Seals SoCal, Promises2Kids, Father Joe's Villages, and local churches and orphanages. Your simple contribution can make a big impact in putting a smile on a child's face and spreading holiday cheer.
