Cris Cyborg donates her Christmas to the Sunrise Children’s Hospital of Las Vegas #UFC219 #Bear4kids

While most people are consumed with the idea of gift receiving, buying as we get closer to Christmas, Cris Cyborg is focused on a different date. December 30, Cris Cyborg is set to defend her UFC world title against Holly Holm as the main event at UFC 219 taking place inside the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas.

While Cris will still celebrate the meaning of Christmas and the resurrection of Jesus with her friends and family Dec. 25th, the larger family gathering which includes food, drinks, and celebration will be on hold until after UFC 219.

Wanting to bring attention to the wonderful work of the Las Vegas Sunrise Children’s Hospital, Cris Cyborg has decided to ‘Donate her Christmas’ to the Children of LVSCH. During the week of UFC 219 if you are going to be in Las Vegas for New Years, Cris is asking for donations of NEW Teddy Bears that will be collected by Cyborg and her team and then hand delivered to the children of the Sunrise Children’s Hospital in Las Vegas following the UFC 219 weekend.

While Team Cyborg is currently working on several options for drop of off the Teddy Bears, we currently will have a collection box located inside MMAjunkie’s Radio recording studio, located inside the Mandalay Bay Sports Book. Mandalay Bay is located 3950 S. Las Vegas Blvd. The Teddy Bears can be dropped off Thursday Dec. 28th and Friday Dec. 29th from 8AM-1PM. For further news on additional collection spots, be sure to follow @CrisCyborg on Instagram and on Twitter.
