From Australia to Cuba with love 2026

Now more than ever we need to support the Cuban people. With threats of invasion by the United states and a crippling blockade hitting the economy this initiative by the Australian Cuba friendship society is important. Both from a political and from mutual assistance point of view. Please support this campaign by walking riding conducting any activity from Australia to Cuba with love in June and July of 2026.

Welcome to our 2026 campaign From Australia to Cuba with Love

Please join us for our fifth year of this activity-based event where we collectively travel the distance between Havana and Canberra over eight weeks, raising awareness and funds for Cuba.

Over the past 4 years, our annual campaign From Australia to Cuba with Love has raised over $51,000 for medical needs and sustainable agricultural projects. However, this year is by far the most critical as Cuba remains poised to face imminent threats and intervention from the Trump administration.

Following 66 years since the imposition of the US economic blockade against Cuba, President Trump has ratcheted up sanctions by threatening any country or company that sends oil to Cuba. Across the island the population is experiencing lengthy electricity blackouts daily, affecting all sections of the Cuban economy and social infrastructure (including restrictions to medical procedures, school and university classes) and causing further hardship for everyday Cuban people in their homes.

Energy security has been identified as one of the top two priorities in Cuba at this moment. International solidarity is ramping up and here in Australia our campaign From Australia to Cuba with Love will be fundraising for the provision of a solar system to secure the energy needs of a community home for orphaned children in the Guantanamo province.
