The Coastal Del Mar Caravan, together with dedicated professional Realtors, hosted a highly successful Holiday Charity Party in November benefiting the San Diego Center for Children, California’s oldest children’s nonprofit organization. The event took place at the scenic Hotel Indigo in Del Mar, where guests enjoyed an evening overlooking the ocean while giving back to children in need, according to a news release.
Attendees generously contributed boxes of toys, supporting hundreds of local at-risk youth and teens to ensure every child received a Christmas gift. The celebration featured festive holiday music, professional networking, raffles, and a flavorful menu of steak and chicken tacos with full fixings, paired with specialty cocktails.
The evening was filled with laughter, love, and holiday magic, as guests gathered for photos by the Christmas tree and enjoyed the warm sense of community.
Sponsor Ted Przybylek described the evening as “a quality event,” echoing the sentiments felt throughout the night, the news release stated.

Monica Nash, ambassador for the San Diego Center for Children, shared in the news release: “Once again we shared some holiday joy with the community while collecting toys that will enable us to continue creating the happiness that inspires hope for these precious children.”
