  Bridges of Love and Code Pink

Washington, Aug 24 (RHC) A donation of five thousand pounds of powdered milk is on its way to Cuba today for pediatric hospitals in the provinces of Villa Clara, Cienfuegos and Sancti Spíritus, said activist Carlos Lazo.

The coordinator of the Bridges of Love Movement said that during three days they will distribute the cargo, which also includes some 100,000 tablets of painkillers, bread-making machines for children's homes in the aforementioned provinces and materials needed for a nursing home in Cienfuegos, among other supplies.

Other members of Puentes de Amor are traveling with Lazo, as well as Medea Benjamin, co-founder of the U.S. peace organization Code Pink, part of this solidarity project.

We are bringing love above all," said Benjamin, a tireless activist for human rights, peace and support for Cuba.

Through a direct link from the plane that will take them to the island, the Cuban professor residing in Seattle thanked all those who contributed to make this shipment a reality, mentioning the link Leche pa'Cuba (Milk for Cuba).

The activist confirmed that next Sunday, as happens on the last weekend of every month, the Caravan against the Blockade will take place, radiating from Miami to cities in the United States and other parts of the world.Within the United States, the wave of support is growing in favor of the lifting of the unilateral economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the White House more than six decades ago, either with Democratic or Republican occupants.
