Operation: Cigars For Warriors Announces 2024 “Giving Tuesday” fundraising drive

Ocala, FL – Operation: Cigars For Warriors announced today that it is conducting a fundraising drive from November 11th

December 3rd (Giving Tuesday). CFW is continuing to partner with retailers like Smoker Friendly to ensure a steady flow of monetary and cigar donations in order to continue its progress towards reaching the milestone of 1.7M cigars shipped to troops since 2012.


As part of their ongoing collaboration with CFW, Smoker Friendly Donation Centers will be conducting a special “roundup” campaign during this time, where customers may elect to round their purchase up to the nearest dollar and donate the difference to Cigars for Warriors.


Jeremy Weiner, Category Director at Smoker Friendly LLC said: “We at
Smoker Friendly are deeply honored to be part of the Cigars For Warriors Roundup campaign. Supporting our troops through this initiative is a privilege, and we are committed to contributing to their well-being and morale. It’s our small way of expressing gratitude for their
sacrifices and dedication to our country. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Cigars For Warriors and making a meaningful impact in the lives of those who serve.”

In order to continue fulfilling our commitment to serving deployed men and women around the world, we will need a lot of support.”
