About Toys for Tots:
From the organization's web site: "The primary goal of
Toys for Tots
is to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens."
You get cigars and kids get toys! All proceeds will be sent to SeƱorPablo for a donation to Toys for Tots on behalf of the Cigar Geeks community.
