I’m excited to start offering Christian mission trips to Cuba through Cuban Aid Alliance. 🇨🇺

These trips will give church groups the chance to serve through hands-on humanitarian work in Havana and rural Artemisa, while also connecting with local Christian communities.

If your church has a missions program, take a look through the screenshots in this post and share them with your pastor, missions director, or church leadership.

We’ve put together something that can give people a meaningful way to serve, build relationships, and experience a side of Cuba most visitors never see.

If this feels like a good fit for your church, I’d love to start a conversation.

Maybe your next mission trip could be Cuba.

URGENT MEDICAL NEED

We have a friend in Cuba who is currently hospitalized with a severe case of dengue hemorrhagic fever. Her condition has become critical, and she is in need of IV treatment and a blood transfusion.

Cuban Aid Alliance is working to help cover the immediate costs of the medical supplies and treatment she needs. This is time-sensitive, and we're asking our community to help us move quickly.

$5, $10, $20 — anything helps. When enough people give a little, we can make a very big difference for someone who needs it right now.

If you can't donate, please share this post. Every share helps us reach someone who can.

Donations can be made directly to Cuban Aid Alliance:

Please put "Medical Aid" in the note.

Thank you for helping us show up for someone when she needs it most. ❤️🇨🇺

My birthday is tomorrow, and this year I’m asking for something a little different.

We’ve raised $400 of the $11,200 needed to upgrade Un Plato Más, our soup kitchen project in Havana. That leaves us with $10,800 to go toward the equipment and infrastructure we need to prepare and distribute meals reliably to children, elderly neighbors, and families who need them.

For my birthday, I’d love to see us push that number higher.

But I’m also planning something here in Memphis to help make it happen.

On Saturday, September 5, I’m putting together a benefit show at the Hi-Tone in Memphis, with proceeds going toward the soup kitchen upgrades.

And right now, I NEED BANDS AND ACTS.

If you’re in a band, play solo, DJ, do comedy, spoken word, or have another act that would fit a benefit show, I want to hear from you. If you know somebody who would be perfect, tag them or send this post their way.

I want to pack the Hi-Tone, put on a great night, and turn Memphis music and creativity into meals for people who genuinely need them.

Current: $400 / $11,200
Still needed: $10,800
Benefit: September 5 — Hi-Tone, Memphis

If you want to perform, DM me.

And if you want to give me something for my birthday, skip buying me anything. Help me build a kitchen that can feed people instead.

Even $5, $10, or $20 moves us closer. If you can’t donate, sharing this and helping me find performers costs nothing and could make a huge difference.

Yesterday was incredible.

Because of your generosity, we raised $275 in just one day toward opening Un Plato Más

That may seem like a small number compared to our $11,200 goal, but every journey starts somewhere. More importantly, it tells us that people believe in this mission.

Now let's keep the momentum going.

The funds we're raising will allow us to open a fully functioning community kitchen in Havana. Right now, we're working toward purchasing:

- Solar power system -$4,500
- Screened windows to keep flies out of the kitchen - $1,200
- Split A/C for the kitchen - $900
- To-go containers -$600
- Electric triciclo for deliveries and supply runs - $4,000

Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to opening a kitchen that will provide meals for children, elderly neighbors, and families in Havana who need them most.

We're no longer starting from zero. We're at $275. Now let's see what we can accomplish together this week.

If you've been thinking about donating, now is the perfect time. Share this post, tell a friend about our mission, or make a contribution of any size. Small acts, multiplied by many people, create lasting change.

Thank you to everyone who donated, shared, and encouraged us yesterday. Let's keep building something that will feed people for years to come.

Current Progress: $275 / $11,200
Remaining: $10,925

August is a special month for Cuban Aid Alliance because our founder is celebrating a birthday.

When we asked what he wanted this year, the answer was simple: "Help me open Un Plato Más."

Many of you have followed this project from the beginning. Un Plato Más will be more than a soup kitchen. It will be a community kitchen where we can prepare fresh meals for children, elderly neighbors, and families in Havana while creating a place where the community can gather with dignity.

To open our doors, we still need a few major items:

- Solar power system: $4,500
- To-go containers: $600
- Screened windows to keep flies out of the kitchen: $1,200
- Split A/C for the kitchen: $900
- Electric triciclo for deliveries and supply runs: $4,000

Total remaining goal: $11,200

We know that's a significant amount, but we've also seen what can happen when people come together. Whether you can give $10 or help fund an entire project, every donation brings us one step closer to opening our doors and serving our first meal.

If you've ever wanted to support Cuban Aid Alliance, this month is a meaningful time to do it. Instead of a birthday gift, help us build something that will feed the people of Havana for years to come.

Thank you for believing in our mission. Together, we can always serve one more plate.

I've been traveling to Cuba for a long time.
I've watched conditions get worse year after year, but I have never seen anything like what I witnessed last week.
These aren't photos from decades ago. They were taken in 2026.
Twenty-hour blackouts have become commonplace in Havana. In many rural parts of the country, they're even longer. Without fuel, power plants can't keep the lights on. Without electricity, water pumps stop working. Families walk blocks carrying jugs just to have enough water to drink, cook, bathe, and wash clothes.
Children should be playing outside—not hauling water home for their families.

Without fuel, garbage trucks can't make their routes. Trash sits in the streets for days or weeks, creating health hazards in neighborhoods that are already struggling. Families cook over charcoal because they have no other choice. They wash clothes by hand because washing machines are useless without electricity.
The fuel restrictions and the inability to obtain critical parts needed to keep Cuba's aging power grid running have made life even harder for ordinary Cubans.

Whatever your political beliefs are, it's the Cuban people who are living with the consequences every single day.
That's why I started Cuban Aid Alliance.

One of these photos shows the home of Un Plato Más, our community soup kitchen. Our goal is simple: serve dependable, nutritious meals to anyone who needs one.
But even keeping food safe has become a challenge. Right now, we're forced to rely on buying ice every day because of the constant blackouts. That's money that should be feeding people. Our next major goal is to install solar panels and battery storage so our refrigerators can stay running even when the power is out. Reliable electricity will allow us to cook, store food safely, and serve meals no matter what happens to the grid.

For the past year and a half, I've poured everything I have into this mission.
Despite all the work, fundraising events, and countless hours, we've raised only about $2,000. Every dollar has gone directly toward helping Cuban families survive. I haven't even been able to put enough aside to fully launch Un Plato Más.
I'll be honest—it's frustrating.
But I'm not giving up.
We're planning benefit concerts, community yard sales here in Memphis, and other fundraisers to make this kitchen a reality.
If you've ever wanted to make a real difference, this is your chance.
Join one of our humanitarian mission trips and help us on the ground. Every person who joins helps provide approximately 600 meals while working alongside our team in Cuba.
If you can't travel, please consider making a donation.

If you can't donate, please share this post.

I'm not asking you to solve Cuba's problems.
I'm asking you to help us solve one.
One hot meal.
One family.
One community.
One plate at a time.

Today we were back out in the streets of Habana Vieja, putting food directly into the hands of people who truly need it.
What you’re seeing in this video is real life in Cuba right now. Families struggling. Elderly with no support. People going entire days without a proper meal. This isn’t rare—it’s daily reality.
We served hot meals today, but the truth is… it’s never enough.
For every person we feed, there are 10 more we have to walk past.
That’s why we need your help.
Every dollar you send goes directly toward food, cooking gas, and getting meals into the streets. No fluff. No middleman. Just real impact.
If you’ve ever thought about helping—this is your moment.
