Big News from the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation! 🎨🎼 Yesterday, the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation (CFCF) proudly opened the doors to the new Cigar Family Academy of Arts in Bonao, Dominican Republic. This state-of-the-art facility—made possible with the generous support of Hublot—furthers the vision of the Fuente and Newman families: providing Dominican children with opportunities to develop their talents and pursue careers in the arts. What’s Inside the Academy? ✨ Four new buildings dedicated to music, arts, and dance programs. ✨ A stunning amphitheater for performances, inaugurated by Grammy Award-winning artist Arturo Sandoval. ✨ Expanded curriculum to nurture future artists and performers. Since 2004, CFCF has invested over $20 million in transformational education programs. This year alone, 440 students are attending the academy, primary school, high school, and technical school. “I am enormously grateful to my friends at Hublot for supporting the creation of our new Academy of Arts,” said Carlos Fuente, Jr. “This facility will give children in the Dominican Republic the opportunity to pursue their passion and talent in the arts.” Every dollar raised for CFCF goes directly to helping children and families in need, thanks to the Fuente and Newman families underwriting all operating costs. Together, we’re Changing the World, One Child at a Time. 💙 (fb)
