ALTADIS U.S.A. TO DONATE CIGARS TO TROOPS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN
Altadis U.S.A. has announced that it is donating nearly 20,000 premium
cigars to the U.S. Marines serving on the front lines in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Named “Cigars for a Marine,” the project is being coordinated
by Robert Zima, owner of Appleton Souvenir and Cigar in Appleton,
Wisconsin, and Adrienne Palm, Manager of Appleton Cigar. Zima is also
working with his local customers to organize donations and send packages.
“Cigars for a Marine” is the brainchild of two of Zima’s customers;
Benjamin Czap, an Iraqi Freedom Veteran and Brandon Salfai.
Altadis U.S.A.’s contribution is made up of cigars from a number of
their brands including Romeo y Julieta and H. Upmann. “We are honored
to support our Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan,” said Jim Colucci,
Senior Vice President of Altadis U.S.A. “We are proud of the heroic
work they are doing on the front lines to protect our country, and
we hope that this donation brings them a few moments of well-deserved
pleasure.”
Appleton Souvenir and Cigar, which features a walk-in humidor, is
located at 415 W. College Ave. Store hours are 10:30 AM to 9 PM Monday
through Wednesday, 10:30 AM to 11 PM on Thursday and 10:30 AM to 12
AM on Friday and Saturday.
Anyone wishing to support “Cigars for a Marine” should contact Robert
Zima at (920) 830-8349. Cigars will be sent to comply with the appropriate
military requirements.
