Story
Dear Friends
In April, I will be traveling to Cuba with a group of Cubans who live in the UK. We going to participate in the Nation and Emigration 2020 conference in Havana. While we are there, we are hoping to donate to an old peoples’ home in Havana. We want to buy a television for the elderly residents in the home. I hope you don’t see this as a ‘handout’. It is a small gesture, in the midst of the tightening of the United States blockade, designed to squeeze the Cuban population so they suffer. It is a message of solidarity and love for Cuba and its people.
Jose Marti said:
The best way to say is to do
and it is in that spirit we are making this collection.
Thanks in advance.

4 years agoEarlier this year, Cubans in the UK fundraised £550 to donate a television to an old people's home in Cuba. With Cuba's borders now open, we will finally be able to make the donation in person. We will also be taking other donations, including piano strings for Havana's Guillermo Tomás Music Conservatory and sound equipment for the Soñarte community project in Havana.

5 years agoDear friends These is a short message to let you know that due to the coronavirus pandemic we have to postpone our visit to Cuba and the handing over of your kind donations. We raised a total of £550 :) and we are in contact with the Cuban counterpart responsible for organizing our visit to the elderly home care. As soon this crises permits we will rearrange our trip and let all of you know. Thank you very much for your support.
