Johnny B CEO and President Alfonso "Al" Añorga started a brand for men and boys to encourage good grooming which, in turn, encourages a healthy sense of self-respect. He instilled his work ethic and his dedication to improving the lives of others to his children: Cassis, his 23-year-old daughter now pursuing her law degree, and Evan, his 21-year-old autistic son enrolled in junior college in Southern California.
It was Evan’s idea to find the perfect Autism charity to partner with for the newly launched Johnny B Juniors line, a five-product line designed for boys ages 3-13. After much deliberation, Evan and Al chose ACEing Autism, a volunteer-driven nonprofit that helps autistic children, ages 5-18, develop motor skills and improve social interaction through weekly two-hour tennis lessons.
