A New Chapter in Our Cuba Humanitarian Journey


Dear, Reader,

Over the past couple of months, I have been listening, learning, and working behind the scenes to bring a very meaningful vision to life: the inaugural Cuba Humanitarian Journey.

Today, I’m excited to share an important update and invite you to read the story behind this journey.

Your questions, encouragement, and conversations helped shape this experience. This is more than a trip; it is an opportunity to connect with Cuba through culture, community, and meaningful human connections while supporting local initiatives along the way.

In this latest update, I share:
• The selected travel dates
• The vision behind this journey
• The community impact we hope to create
• What comes next as we continue bringing this experience together

Should Cuba have a special place in your heart, or should you have ever dreamed of experiencing the island beyond the typical itinerary, I invite you to learn more about this unique journey.

Thank you for being part of this story and for helping shape what comes next.
