About your trip

 

This upcoming November 6-13, 2024, SAWB is organizing a sports service trip to Havana, Cuba. During our time there, we are planning various sports related community service projects, and we will need volunteers in all of these areas, as well as donations to make this possible.  The difficult economic situation over the past several years in Cuba has devalued the currency during a time when the price of basic necessities has significantly increased, making life very difficult for everyone living on the island.  Currently, the average monthly income is only $10 a month!  This means that your money and efforts can go further there to make a difference.
Our mission is to serve the needs of student athletes and the Cuban people by:
- Collecting and distributing sports related items that are either impossible to purchase in Cuba or are too expensive for the local population to afford, such as balls, nets, clothing, uniforms, shoes, jerseys, gloves, bats, hoops, etc.
-Our volunteers will be organizing and instructing sports clinics for Volleyball, Soccer, Basketball, and Baseball, for the local youth during our trip, and we will support creating leagues for the sports to continue after we leave.
We have worked with the local community leaders to identify the areas of greatest need, so that our time and resources can make the biggest impact during this trip and for many years to come.
