Cruise 4 Kids Presents the 2016 Teddy Ball

DiMora Motorcar Helps Collect Teddy Bears for Kids

San Diego, California – November 21, 2016 – Cruise 4 Kids will present this year’s Teddy Ball at the Hilton San Diego Resort and Spa, November 26th, 2016 (7:30 p.m - 1:00 a.m.). The black tie event is organized by Cruise 4 Kids, a 501(c)3 charity based out of San Diego, California. Cruise 4 Kids’ mission is to raise money through charity events that support and fund other youth organizations on not only a local level, but state, federal, and global levels as well.

“The Teddy Ball is a fun, annual event that brings together a diverse group of people to help a great cause,” said Sir Alfred J. DiMora, founder of DiMora Motorcar and Cruise 4 Kids board member. “Helping kids is a cause that is dear to my heart and I am more than happy to use my position in the automotive world to bring more attention to The Teddy Ball and the wonderful work that Cruise 4 Kids does.”

The goal of the Teddy Ball is to bring members of the community together to raise money for adolescent focused organizations and collect new stuffed teddy bears. The bears are donated to San Diego area hospitals and organizations that distribute them to sick and needy children.
