Fundraising Actions for Cuba

Quebec
Fundraising for Cuba

The Table de concertation de solidarité Québec-Cuba, in coordination with other committees in Quebec and Canada, is organizing a fundraising to support and help Cuba. In the past, in response to COVID, the Table had created a fund dedicated to Cuba’s medical needs and sent medical equipment to Cuba. Following the tragedy in Matanzas, the Table is now collecting donations for the present emergency in coordination with the Cuban authorities. There are two ways to make a donation:

1) INTERAC transfer, to the email sylvain.archambault1@hotmail.com (Sylvain Archambault is treasurer of the Table); the code word is Cuba.

2) By check to the order of the Table de Concertation de Solidarité Québec-Cuba, to be mailed to the following address:
