Help for the People of Cuba

The website Cuba-Junky is born out of passion for Cuba and in specific the people of this beautiful island. Besides to sell commercial stuff to keep this site going we also help many Cubans in need and we can do that with YOUR HELP.
Below you will find some projects, our donors made some Cubans very happy, thanks for those who made a donation!

Sounds easy but it isn't. In first where do you find people who are willing to give money, second there are already many projects around the world, and third people get tired to donate and feel insecure if their money will be spend at the projects they did choose for.

Thats why we have created this page, to show you what we are busy with and the results afterwards.

Also ... it is not easy to help Cubans because they are afraid for politic movements. We have to tell them over and over again Cuba-Junky is NOT a politic website and our projects are small scaled and individual. We do not expect and want anything in return of the Cuban people or their government. Its all and only about People to People.

Just keep on believing!

Madruga To give an example ... what we are proud of ... In the beginning of the summer of 2005 Cuba was the victim of hurricane Dennis, many people in the center of Cuba lost their houses or had at least many damage. Cuba-Junky decided to help these people. We choose for the town of Madruga, a small village near Guines, along the old Carretera Central. We do have a contact person in Madruga who was able to assist us with finding the people who needed the most. The poverty we saw was shocking, check out the pictures we made there. After 4 months collecting money we went back and registered the people who received money, they had to tell us what they wanted to do with it. It wasn't really necessary because the houses were in such a bad condition that all reasons would have passed our agreement. - Photo Gallery Madruga >>

	Victoria's after school study house In Centro Havana lives the retired teacher Victoria she helps the youth of Havana with their homework and understanding their lessons. She earns a very small salary and receives some Cuban Pesos for these lessons. The kids have these lessons in a small window-less livingroom in Centro Havana.
Cuba-Junky has already given some help but not enough to arrange a better location for this pasionated retired teacher. If you like to help this Cubana, please donate and let us know you prefer to help the teacher. Are you going to Havana and have school products like pencils, paper etc, you can give this to Pototo on location and he will take care that it will hand out to the teacher
