Solidarity groups in Mexico and Argentina have launched various initiatives to provide humanitarian aid to Cuba, citing shortages caused by economic restrictions and the United States blockade.

In Mexico, efforts began with an art auction in Mexico City featuring works by Mexican and Cuban artists to fund pediatric cancer care. The proceeds were intended for medicines, supplies, and medical equipment. Additionally, the Colectivo Solidaridad Militante Va por Cuba established a collection center at the Monumento a la Revolución to gather milk and medicine.

In Argentina, the Movimiento Argentino de Solidaridad (MASCuba) relaunched its ‘Estamos con Cuba’ campaign. Following the distribution of solar kits to families, the group shifted focus toward fundraising for high-capacity solar energy systems to support the Enrique Cabrera National Hospital in Havana.
