Polo field welcomes games for charity

RANCHO SANTA FE — Miracle Babies, a non-profit dedicated to providing education, support, and financial assistance to families with newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit, will be the beneficiary of the USAP Rossmore Cup White Party at the San Diego Polo Club, 14555 El Camino Real, on the border of Del Mar and Rancho Santa Fe.

This VIP fundraiser is scheduled from 12:30 to 7 p.m. Aug. 31 in the Pavilion tent at the Polo Club. Miracle Babies exclusive Pavilion Lounge & Luncheon tickets are $125 each.

The San Diego Polo Club features two competitive matches, intermission entertainment, and a divot stomp — which is a chance to stretch your legs and walk on to the polo field with a glass of champagne and stomp the divots that have been kicked up by the polo ponies.

“We’re truly honored to be the beneficiary of this prestigious event and celebration,” said Sean Daneshmand, M.D., founder of Miracle Babies.  “Many mothers of premature or critically ill newborns are financially unable to be at the hospital with their babies every day,” he said.  “We founded Miracle Babies to provide support and financial assistance to parents who find themselves in such situations.”

Each Sunday, the San Diego Polo Club partners with various groups, brands and charities, making each Sunday event unique. On the Sunday before Labor Day, Miracle Babies invites attendees to celebrate polo and the fine work of the charity. The event price includes fare from Wild Thyme Catering and one free drink ticket after which there will be a no-host bar available for the afternoon (21+ ID required at check-in).  For more information and to purchase tickets, visit
