April is National Autism Awareness Month, and E.P. Carrillo is once again running its Pledge98 campaign. From April 1st through April 30th, E.P. Carrillo will donate $9.80 from every box of the Pledge Prequel sold to the Els for Autism Foundation.

In addition to fundraising, E.P. Carrillo has been hosting Pledge98 events nationwide, engaging with communities and raising awareness about autism. Members of the E.P. Carrillo team have also been participating in Els for Autism golf tournaments and other local gatherings to support the cause.

“Our first Pledge98 campaign with Els for Autism surpassed all of our expectations,” said Lissette Perez-Carrillo, Co-Owner of E.P. Carrillo Cigar Company, in a press release. “We hope our 2nd year will continue to engage the retailers and consumers just as much.”

The E.P. Carrillo Pledge98 campaign is part of the Carrillo Cares initiative. Last year, through two campaigns, the Pledge98 campaign raised $90,000 for the Els for Autism Foundation.

The “98” in the name comes from a rating the Pledge Prequel cigar received from Cigar Aficionado. The video talks about Carrillo Cares and the first Pledge98 Campaign that took place last year.
