Papa’s Pilar, maker of award-winning Papa’s Pilar Dark and Blonde Rums, said it will donate $10 for every Papa’s Pilar Dark Rum Relief Bottle and $5 for every Papa’s Pilar Blonde Relief Bottle, up to 15,000 bottles, to relief partners including “Convoy of Hope: Anglers for the Bahamas.” The program was created in partnership with the Hemingway Family and Dr. Guy Harvey, who created and donated custom special artwork for the bottles.
“Papa’s Pilar is inspired by Ernest Hemingway and strives to support causes that carry on his legacy,” said Mike Myatt, Papa’s Pilar Chief Communities & Conservation Officer. “We have a deep connection to the Abaco Islands‘ people and culture, and through our program with the Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation, we hope to support those affected by the horrific devastation of Hurricane Dorian as they begin to rebuild their lives, homes and businesses.”
In addition to the donation program running through 2019, Papa’s Pilar and Guy Harvey will be working with relief partners to develop an ongoing recovery and rebuilding program for the Abaco Islands in 2020 and beyond.
