Our Story

In the late 1990s, the Johnston family first set foot in Cuba, enchanted by its vibrant culture and warm-hearted people. Each year, they returned, forging deep connections with locals in a small cayo near the town of Moron. They shared laughter over meals, explored the lush landscapes, and learned about the daily lives of their Cuban friends, who welcomed them as family.

In 2016, a family tragedy struck when a member of the Johnston family fell ill, leaving her bedridden. It was during this difficult time that the Johnstons felt the full impact of the friendships they had built. Their Cuban friends rallied around, providing emotional support through regular video calls and messages. These interactions filled her room with laughter and love, making her feel less isolated in her struggle. The Johnstons were profoundly moved by the strength of community and connection, realizing how important these relationships were, not just for their family, but for the people of Cuba as well.

When the pandemic hit in 2020, the Johnstons were heartbroken as travel to Cuba ceased overnight. The resorts that had once thrived were shuttered, and their friends on the island faced dire shortages of food, medical supplies, work, power, and essentials. Distressed by the thought of their friends suffering alone, the Johnstons knew they had to act.

The first suitcases we brought were in July 2021 and we have always transported suitcases since. I have recruited other family and friends as well and each person has always offered to do it again and again as it is rewarding to know that help is being received.

Volunteering with A Lot of Love For Cuba has allowed us to have a huge impact on each life, seeing a smile on their faces and always hearing the same phrase: "Oh, thank you so much we didn't have anything". This has been un unforgettable experience for me.
