This Tuesday, April 11, it was learned that two Cuban visual artists joined in an initiative to create a humanitarian bridge in Cuba.
Through a publication on Facebook, Yulier Rodríguez gave details of the initiative he is carrying out together with fellow artist Alain Rafael Dueñas.
“Art for Children. Disposable bottoms are essential items for babies from the moment they are born. The instability that exists in Cuba in all types of areas does not exclude this type of product, more than necessary for the healthy and comfortable development of infants.”

The idea of the Cuban plastic artists is to raise funds and buy diapers and wet wipes for babies. The campaign is carried out through a raffle of works of art, which will be valid for 15 days.
Anyone interested in participating may register through a PayPal account provided for this purpose, with a minimum payment of $5.
The funds raised will be used to purchase and send diapers and wet wipes to Cuban mothers and fathers who need these items for the care of their babies. The initiative seeks to offer a minimum contribution to improve the well-being of the little ones and their families in the midst of the difficulties that the island is going through due to the dictatorship.

The artist Yulier Rodríguez explained on his Facebook account that in recent weeks it has been difficult to get diapers on the island, both in state and private spaces, which has put many parents in crisis who find few options for purchase. thereof. That is why a solution is sought through this humanitarian campaign.
Two winners will be chosen in the draw: the first will take a canvas by Yulier and the second, a photograph by Dueñas. Both artists have come together in this project to provide a minimal contribution to the well-being of babies and their families.
The lack of basic resources for child care is a problem that affects families in Cuba. The economic crisis and the lack of access to basic products such as diapers put the health and well-being of babies at risk.
