Support Jewish Life in Cuba – Join the Jewish Cuba Connection!

Story:

For over a century, a resilient Jewish community has called Cuba home. Despite enduring decades of hardship and isolation, Jewish life in Cuba continues to survive — but now, more than ever, it needs your support.

Jewish Cuba Connection is a grassroots effort dedicated to providing essential supplies, medical aid, and human connection to our brothers and sisters across the island. Through hands-on trips, resource distribution, and long-standing relationships with Cuban synagogues and leaders, we ensure that Cuba’s Jewish communities are not forgotten.

Why We’re Raising Funds:

Cuba is currently facing one of the worst humanitarian crises in its modern history. Widespread shortages of food, medicine, and basic goods are making day-to-day life extremely difficult — especially for vulnerable populations like the elderly and children who make up the vast majority of the community.

Your donations will help us:

• Deliver medications and health supplies to families and community pharmacies

• Provide humanitarian aid including food packages and toiletries

• Sustain community connections with visits, communication, and moral support

How You Can Help:

• $36 buys a month’s worth of basic toiletries for a household

• $100 helps provide food for a small community seder or Friday night at a synagogue.

• $250 can fill a suitcase with desperately needed medication.

• Any amount brings hope and continuity to an enduring Jewish presence

This work is personal. Our volunteers don’t just send supplies — they visit, share meals, pray together, and build lasting relationships that bridge borders and strengthen the Jewish spirit.

Help us ensure that Jewish Cuba remains a living, breathing part of the global Jewish family.

Thank you — or as we say in Cuba, gracias y shalom.
