$50K
Potential annual support
At a five-percent annual return, the fund could provide approximately $50,000 each year.
Our first mission project
Hope and sustainability in Cuba.
Years of trusted relationships have shaped a long-term strategy to resource Cuban Christian leaders as they serve their communities and share the Gospel.
Why Cuba
Faith is growing amid extraordinary hardship
Cuba has been under-resourced for many years. Conditions deteriorated rapidly in the years surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, and estimates indicate that approximately 20 percent of the population has left since 2021.
Even in this hardship, church leaders report that people are coming to faith in Jesus Christ in numbers not seen in many years. Sharing Hope Global’s leadership has traveled on mission in Cuba since 2008 through churches and other Christian organizations, developing long and trusted relationships with leaders throughout the country.
“What is needed is a sustainable structure for financial resources.”
Consistent resources allow Cuban leaders to plan, operate, maintain, and expand ministry without depending solely on mission teams arriving from abroad.
The Cuba Mission Fund
A goal of $1,000,000
The fund is intended to be professionally managed in the United States, with earnings supporting ministry operations and mission efforts in Cuba.
Local direction
Cuban Christian leaders are best equipped to identify needs and carry out ministry in their own communities.
Long-term confidence
More predictable resources make both urgent response and multi-year planning possible.
Our partner
Eastern Baptist Convention
Sharing Hope Global partners with the Eastern Baptist Convention, headquartered in Santiago de Cuba, to identify areas of greatest need and support effective, locally led initiatives.
Ministry includes the convention offices, seminaries, the pastor retirement center and infirmary, church planting, and missionaries serving across Cuba.
- Plant new churches
- Send local missionaries to unreached areas
- Support the retirement center, chapel, and medical facility
- Strengthen seminaries and mission camp
- Respond to natural disasters and extreme hardship
Recent mission impact
Meeting urgent needs while building for the future
Sharing Hope Global continues to balance immediate relief with projects that help Cuban churches and communities become more sustainable.
2025
Hurricane relief, housing, and food
After Hurricane Melissa caused widespread property damage throughout Santiago de Cuba, Sharing Hope Global provided approximately $50,000 in emergency relief to the Eastern Baptist Convention. The aid helped feed displaced families and provide or repair homes and shelter for Cubans affected by the storm.
Sharing Hope Global also funded the purchase of a new house church in Havana and supported local food-distribution ministries administered by pastors and churches affiliated with the Eastern Baptist Convention.
2026
A farm and house church near Havana
Sharing Hope Global provided funding for a local church group to purchase a small farm and house church in the suburbs of Havana. The property included existing crops and the ability to increase food production for the surrounding community and the greater Havana metropolitan area.
Because unreliable electricity limits food storage, fresh, ready-to-eat food is especially important. This project, operated in partnership with local Havana churches, is helping meet that need while strengthening long-term community ministry.
Mission history
From work site to lasting place of ministry
These photographs from 2012 document hands-on work at the retirement center and seminary, including construction of the chapel and improvements to the surrounding facilities.
