The Interreligious Foundation for Community Organizing sent an
Emergency Hurricane Relief Brigade to Cuba on Oct. 20. The team of 20
construction workers, including masons, electricians and plumbers, are in
Puerto Esperanza helping to repair a school for special needs children that was
all but destroyed by Hurricane Ike. Upon its arrival, the brigade was welcomed
by ICAP, the Cuban Institute for Friendship with the People. It will remain in
Cuba until Nov. 17.
