The COVID pandemic forced Cuba to close its doors to tourism for several years, which
severely impacted the economy. In addition, the main power plant broke down last fall, resulting
in widespread power outages across the island for several weeks. Since then, electricity has
been rationed, and families can expect to have power for only a few hours each day. Food and
water are also rationed. The people are struggling to survive.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the congregation of the Second Baptist Church in Santiago
de Cuba and neighboring communities.
