Samoset and Squanto taught the Pilgrims to grow corn in the New World, teaches the Cubans to become financially inde-pendent; both lessons are life sustaining and give hope to those who feel overpowered by their surroundings.

In the spirit of Samoset and Squanto, do something daringly different this holiday season, venture to the lost and confused in Cuba and see how you can help. is more than happy to lead you in that direction.
