Cuban Philanthropy That Delivers Hope - Inside SupportCubans.Life, Hand-Delivering Humanitarian Aid To The People Of Cuba

A Charity Working To Help Cubans Living In Poverty!

'According to a 2022 report from the Cuban Human Rights Observatory (OCDH), 72 percent of Cubans live below the poverty line. 21 percent of Cubans who live below the poverty line frequently go without breakfast, lunch or dinner due to a lack of money.'

And while many people in America are suffering in much the same way, for Cubans who have come to the U.S. the plight of their brethren who remain in Cuba is often top of mind!

Enter Chazz Menendez who came to America in 1963 with his pregnant mother, as the still unborn child she was carrying.

I was introduced to Chazz by his and my good friend Valerie Smaldone (Do You Ever Wonder https://youtu.be/lckkDJfc9mM?si=RF1QwyvdtDcIcWWs) who felt that he had an important story to tell. Indeed he does!

Chazz, in the spirit of giving back to the United States volunteered on the World Trade Center pile for two days, September 12th and 13th 2001.

After adopting two sons, he was forced to retire from his career as a stunt man due to WTC pile-induced Stage 4 brain cancer.

But wanting to give back to Cuban citizens living in poverty, he recently founded the charity SupportCubans.Life with the tagline 'People Caring For People'.

Watch a short video about it here, https://youtu.be/kZg9zp16V7M?si=MSa7riqb9foMlyST.

In it, Chazz describes what SupportCubans.Life does, and how you can help.

This is the Mission Statement, '“SupportCubans.LIFE” is a grassroots, humanitarian nonprofit organization that raises money for our team of volunteers to travel to Cuba and also asks people to donate used and new essential products and ship these donations to our storage facility so that our team of volunteers can hand-deliver these donations. '

Our travel team member volunteers visit and stay in these impoverished areas to connect with these communities on a personal level and to make sure the people receive these donations. 

The People of Cuba are in dire need of your donations.'
