The entrepreneur Hugo Puig González, owner of Bar K5, and the charitable group "With Love, All Together" are preparing to provide a free year-end meal to vulnerable individuals, such as the elderly and abandoned children, in Havana this Tuesday.
The initiative, which aims to bring hope and joy on such a special date, will involve the collaboration of entrepreneurs and community members.
According to a Facebook post by Penélope SokomepingDuren, the group has organized a series of preparatory activities, including the distribution of new clothing, haircuts, and personal care services for the beneficiaries.
Additionally, the influencer Yamilka Lafita Cancio, better known as Lara Crofs and who has collaborated in previous editions, has donated clothing for the occasion, while the candy shop "Dulces Day" will provide 150 sweets for the dessert at the meal on December 31.
Hugo Puig González, one of the main organizers, explained that they have three medium-sized ham legs and two small boneless ones, enough for about 150-180 people. However, they hope to raise funds to acquire an additional leg to ensure that no one is left without their year-end meal.
To this end, accounts have been set up to receive monetary donations in Cuban pesos (CUP) and freely convertible currency (MLC).
Those interested in collaborating can contact Yunier Toledano Torres, founder of the group "Con Amor Todos Juntos," at the number +5350233912.
The organizers emphasized that any contribution, whether financial or logistical, is welcome: “Remember that if you can only help with a meal, there will be an elderly person or a child that day whom we can all make happy,” they reiterated in the post.
This noble initiative not only aims to alleviate the difficult situation of many people in Havana but also to create a space of solidarity and community during such a significant time as the end of the year.
The last days of 2024 have witnessed various solidarity initiatives across the country, aimed at supporting the most vulnerable and marginalized individuals affected by the Cuban regime.
A gesture of solidarity filled several families in Matanzas with hope last Saturday when activists from Cárdenas, in collaboration with a private restaurant and the humanitarian group Solidarity, organized the distribution of 27 supportive lunches intended for people with low incomes, including members of the National Association of the Blind (ANCI).
Christian Arbolaez informed the group "Cardenenses on Facebook" that the menu, prepared with care and thanks to the support of the bar-restaurant "El Chinito," included yellow rice with pork, a vegetable salad, and a stew.
