HAVANA, Cuba (ACN): The President of the St Lucia-Cuba Friendship Association Rawle Harvey presented a donation of materials sent from that country to Cuba, to help in the recovery from the damage caused by Hurricanes Gustav, Ike, and, more recently, Paloma.
The materials valued at 26,000 US dollars were donated by the Saint Lucian people, non-governmental organizations, charity associations and different companies, reported the Cuban Foreign Relations Ministry (MINREX).
According to the MINREX report, the donation sent by plane includes clothing, shoes, food, construction tools and two power generators. A second similar shipment is expected to be sent to Cuba by that country. | | | | Reads : 573 |
