  • In this video, we’re addressing a question we often get: should you bring items for the Cuban people when you visit? The answer is a resounding yes! The people of Cuba are warm-hearted and always smiling despite the daily hardships they face: Severe shortages of basic necessities like food, medicine, and hygiene products are a reality for many locals.
    Join us as we explain the situation in Cuba and take you shopping with us to fill up our next suitcase headed to Varadero. We'll show you the essential items to pack for your trip and how you can make a positive impact on the local community. Our family has strong ties to Cuba, and we’re passionate about giving back.

    Love this video! I left surprise bags for both boys and girls and the smile on the faces of the housekeepers at our all-inclusive resort was priceless! 🥰

    I usually bring school items like coloring pencils and medication like Polysporin or acetaminiohen.

    Well I would recommend go outside of Varadero and donate in small towns where no tourists coming

    These people have been through a lot. I’ve heard these issues have even trickled down to all inclusive resorts. There’s been limited choices of food and alcohol at some resorts. Has anyone heard about this?
