‘Cruising for A Cause’ To Raise Money for Charity

On Dec. 1, generous guests will board a fancy limousine and cruise down PGA Boulevard in Palm Beach Gardens, stopping off at some of the strip’s finest restaurants for samplings and libations.

“Cruising for A Cause” is a charitable event that will raise money for the CJ Scholarship Program. The CJ Scholarship Program is a CJ Foundation initiative to help children with Autism whose parents otherwise cannot afford treatment.

Guests will gather at PGA National in the famed iBAR, and cocktail attire is required. At each restaurant, a story about a different child in Palm Beach County with autism will be told. “Cruising for A Cause” will conclude back at PGA National with a late-night reception and a charity raffle for a Caribbean cruise.
