Cardenas, Matanzas-Cuba
Solidarity with the Cuban people through our cultural immersion trip is the best way to offer support for the Cuban people. Authentic cultural immersion happens when people of different cultures connects in an authentic setting and soccer and poetry are ideal ingredients to bring people together.
