Jackie Ruiz Takes on Teddy Bear Delivery Challenge in Cross Country Flight
Naperville-based marketer, entrepreneur, author, pilot, and motivational speaker Jacqueline S. Ruiz has been making a tour throughout the American Midwest, handing out teddy bears along the way. Her goal will be to place 400 bears to 400 new homes and smiling children, stopping at schools, airports, and museums wherever her route takes her. The journey was conceived as a way to celebrate her upcoming 40th birthday, planning out a 1,100-nm trip from Kansas, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.
