We are grateful to everyone that attended our events, supported our programs and services, patronized our Thrift Stores, lent their time and talent, and provided financial support to our fundraising efforts throughout 2018 — our 60th anniversary. Here's a look back.

It's not too late to donate.

A huge thank you to the Beach & Country Guild for producing the 6th Annual Regale in the Ranch to benefit UCP San Diego. Here's a look:

Thank you to our UCP Day 2018 participants! We had another great year and our “Rocket the Raccoon” theme was very popular! 

A huge thanks goes out to all the company coordinators who did a wonderful job organizing and processing all of the UCP Day orders.  We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again — UCP cannot do this without your help and support! 

We deeply appreciate all of the dedicated companies who have supported UCP for so many years in San Diego County — and a life without limits for people with disabilities!

Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd    $3,785

On Monday, August 20th, the 36th Annual UCP Golf Classic took place at The El Camino Country Club in Oceanside. Golfers hit the links in bright sunshine and did their best to conquer a challenging course, while raising $57,000 for United Cerebral Palsy of San Diego County.

Following an afternoon of play, golfers were treated to dinner, a live auction and the awards banquet hosted by comedian Russ T. Nailz.

Title sponsor for this year’s event was Rancho Mesa Insurance. Associate sponsors included: The Land Stewards, Rose Munns and Chin, Location Edit, Enterprise Truck Rental, An-Wil Erosion Control, El Camino Rental, Herc Rentals and Bob Stall Chevrolet – La Mesa.

UCP also thanks General Manager Gary Glaser from the El Camino Country Club, his excellent staff and all the participants and supporters that came out to this signature event.

For the 35th year in a row, the San Diego City Fire Fighters graciously donated their financial support as “Title Sponsor” to the always-wild and crazy “Fire Fighters and Friends” Celebrity Waiters Luncheon. This year’s edition was held on a sunny work day in late September and patrons were treated to good food, lots of local and Hollywood stars and the high energy of many San Diego City Fire Fighters, bayside at the Coronado Island Marriott Resort & Spa.

Susan DeVincent from KyXy- FM 96.5 and Comedian Russ T. Nailz co-hosted the event and kept the festivities going at a lively pace. Tips were given freely and with special live auctions, over $58,000 was raised for the cause.

UCP would like to thank our local media partners KyXy 96.5 FM, Location Edit, KUSI News and the San Diego Community Newspaper Group for their promotional efforts. We salute our Hollywood and local celebrities that included such personalities as actor Christopher Knight, also known as "Peter Brady" on The Brady Bunch, actor Shawn Christian ("Dr. Daniel Jonas" on Days Of Our Lives"), actress Debbe Dunning, known as the "Tool Time Girl" on Home Improvement, Shotgun Tom Kelly, renowned disc jockey and Hollywood Walk of Fame Star recipient, actor Peter Kwong ("Rain" in Big Trouble in Little China), actor JC Valleroy, who played "Young Louie" in the film UNBROKEN, plus Leonardo DiCaprio & Austin Powers look-a-likes, just to name a few.

UCP also thanks the staff of the Coronado Marriott Resort & Spa for their assistance and cooperation and the following organizations, companies and individuals for their support: Berkshire Hathaway HC, Misty Thompson & Melody Morgan and the San Diego Enforcers.

Thanks again for making the Celebrity Waiters luncheon an afternoon of “fun in the sun!” Here's the video:

Dia del Sol 2018, held at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar, was a huge success. Thank you to the Beach & Country Guild for producing this awesome event to benefit UCP San Diego and people with disabilities.

It was an incredible day of fun, food, friends and fashion! Here's the video:

UCP thanks everyone who participated in the 36th Annual 5K “No Limits” Walk & Roll, which took place at De Anza Cove on Mission Bay. The title sponsor was MobilityWorks.

Signature sponsors were Cubic and BB&T/ John Burnham Insurance.

Around 350 walkers enjoyed a continental breakfast, and a delicious lunch from event sponsors Casa SolyMar and Casa De Bandini at the completion of the Walk & Roll, while helping raise over $50,000 for United Cerebral Palsy of San Diego County.

Fundraisers were eligible for raffle and incentive prizes, like a day for four to Disneyland. The day was also filled with many colorful t-shirts, as team walkers went the distance to support their children with disabilities.

Special thanks to our emcees, Kimberly Taylor King and 10News Team 10 Reporter  Jennifer Kastner  for guiding our 2018 No Limits Walk & Roll to success!

All funds raised from the “No Limits” Walk & Roll go to support UCP’s local programs. View the photo album. Here's the video:
