Hey guys, the fellas over at Cigar Federation have been working hard to put together one of the craziest cigar contests I've ever seen. We contacted all the folks we knew in the community to gather a HUGE assortment of raffle prizes from samplers to boxes, all the way to a trip to the DR. We have had great support from the cigar community as Project Manana helps children in need in the Dominican Republic. All you have to do is donate $10 to get entered to win. You can read more about the raffle HERE.

I'll continue to bump the thread as we gain momentum and the raffle takes place. I'd love it if someone from Ccom got to win. Plenty of boxes to go around of excellent boutiques, and even FFP from Drew Estates.

This is their Mission Statement:
We exist to share the gospel by empowering local churches and individuals to build lasting relationships with impoverished children, their families and communities through nutrition, education, and guidance.
We achieve our goals through charitable donations and child sponsorship, which unites children in need with individual sponsors who wish to address the children's immediate and basic needs. Sponsorship gives poor children the tools and opportunities necessary for success by providing benefits and supporting programs for each child - primarily in the areas of nutrition and education.
Project Mañana is rooted in Christian values.
You can see all the info on Project Manana on their website - ProjectManana.org

As for the specific funds relating to the CF raffle, we are going to dedicate them to our current building project of a Nutrition Center & Dormitory. The cost for the project is $100,000 US and we are at the beginning stages of raising the funds. I am attaching some rough sketches (we will have the color high-res images soon); which I think you should post to your website also.
He also sent a ton of pictures/sketches of the project itself.
This also qualifies for hte regular prize list, which has grown as well... Updated prize list
We continue to add prizes to the prize pool which already includes Prize Packs from Drew Estate, The Crowned Heads, House of Emilio, and more!
Also, we have two "side contests" set up to even further the prize "goodness". Help us spread the word about this Raffle, and be entered to win a Cult Cigars Prize Pack. The second is a special raffle for any donations that come in today and tomorrow that makes you eligible to win a box of Cuenca Cigars or an AJ Fernandez Prize Pack. We're very close to our goal, and we thank you for your help in getting there. Good luck to all that support this cause, and long ashes!
