Let Cuba Breathe campaign aims to provide concrete help to Cuban people, oppressed for
over 60 years by the cruel bloqueo imposed by the US and victims, under the Trump
administration, of a further tightening of these measures targeted to fuel supply.
Thank to donations, we purchase and deliver in Cuba medical supplies, daily medicines, and
oncology machinery and drugs. In March 2026, we made our first donation, transporting the
items by hand with a group of volunteers. In May, we sent a second batch of donations in a
container from Italy. After these experiences, we realized that the best option, in terms of both
environmental and economic sustainability, is to raise money to purchase the materials
directly in countries closer to Cuba and then ship them because this significantly reduces
logistics costs and maximizes the effectiveness of the funds generously donated by all
participants. You can donate by credit card or bank transfer by following the steps below.

OUR FIRST MISSION: Nuestra América European Convoy To Cuba
(March 17-26): the numbers behind your solidarity
120
DELEGATES
FROM ALL OVER EUROPE
500K €
TOTAL VALUE OF THE AID
COLLECTED FOR CUBA
The March initiative was much more than a mission. It was a concrete response, built together, that turned solidarity into real, measurable actions.
Overall, between financial donations and medical supplies collected, the total value of aid brought to Cuba exceeds €500,000 — a testament to a broad and coordinated collective effort.
DIRECT DONATIONS:
Direct donations received by AICEC amount to €57,000, allocated as follows:
- 55% for the purchase and transport of medicines and medical devices (two containers dispatched, with further shipments planned)
- 15% for communication and outreach activities
- 20% for supporting the flotilla from Mexico
- 10% for European Convoy logistics
Each allocation was designed to maximize concrete impact and ensure the continuity of initiatives.
MATERIAL DONATIONS AND OPERATIONAL SUPPORT:
Alongside financial donations, contributions in goods and direct participation played a key role:
- €120,000 in medicines collected through the collaboration of ordinary citizens and partner associations, carried directly by the 120 delegates in their own luggage
- €400,000 in additional medical supplies already earmarked for a container departing in April
- 1 further container planned to coincide with the Brigada Primero De Mayo
RESULTS AND IMPACT:
This shared commitment has produced concrete results. Over €500,000 worth of medical supplies have been mobilized: aid that has already arrived in Cuba with the first Convoy, is currently on its way, or will arrive with the second Convoy, following a continuity built step by step.
Behind these numbers lies a living network of delegates, volunteers, and organizations that chose to show up, working together in a coordinated and sustained way.
At the same time, the Let Cuba Breathe campaign helped broaden awareness of what is happening, reaching 4 million views and generating over 100 articles across print and online media.
This is how solidarity takes shape: when it becomes action, organization, and sustained presence over time.
That is why the Convoy does not end with a single mission. It continues, with the goal of providing concrete, ongoing, and transparent support.
Every future contribution is part of this path already underway: a way to give continuity to what we have built together.
