Overview
Mission
Aliento Cuba's primary exempt purpose is to provide Humanitarian Aid to the people in Cuba alongside caring for their spiritual needs. We focus on direct assistance to those living in proverty. We work through church pastors and community leaders who intimately know and can identify people in dire need in their community.
What it reported doing in 2025
Provide equipment and installation of solar systems at two churches. Cost was $10,910. In a country where electricity is available 2 -4 hours a day, a solar system allows the community to charge devices such as telephones to communicate and lamps to light the night. It also provides a place where people can cook.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
