This Thursday, October 22nd, Quality Fresh Cigars in Troy will host "Operation Hope - A Special Evening of Cigars, Camaraderie and Caring" to benefit the Montecristo Relief Organization. The event will be held between 3:00 and 7:00 PM. The Relief Organization was founded in 1999 by Altadis U.S.A. - a company with a reputation for treating its employees as family and giving back to its communities - after two devastating hurricanes swept through the Caribbean causing unimaginable terror and destruction. Over 11,000 people were killed, millions injured and millions more left homeless and without means of support. Over the past 10 years, the Montecristo Relief Organization has donated millions of dollars to build homes, schools and medical facilities and provide scholarships and economic opportunities for victims in the Caribbean and the United States. In return for their $75 donation, Operation Hope attendees will enjoy limited edition gift packages of Montecristo luxury cigars and Signature Accessories, valued at over $125, as well as the good feeling of knowing they're contributing to an important cause.
