Program accomplishments

  • We provide resources (food, medications, household supplies, clothing, etc.) for approximately 300 people that Bethel La Playa (local Cuban church in Matanzas) serves. This has allowed their area of influence to increase and facilitated continued church activies and services regardelss of their economic stress. In addition to the resources, we have also funded church related building projects and solar energy upgrades. The upgraded solar energy sources provides the ability to continue operations during island wide blackouts. Additionally, it has provided the ability for the church to begin a community feeding program using the uninterrupted power source.
