since the scum that is western media isnt saying shit about this: cuba is being fucking torn apart by hurricane irma. my people are taking shelter in caves and cold war era bomb shelters. i have zero sympathy for you filthy westerners that only like to use third world countries as a rhetorical device but are nowhere to be found when we need y'all the most.
westerners should reblog this lmfao.
if ya’ll wanna help out those in the caribbean affected by this go to oxfamamerica.org you can choose specifically where you donate to and it’s been highly researched by those at thelifeyoucansave.org and is featured as a trustworthy and effective charity!
I work in the non-profit sector and my top recs right now are Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam, Habitat for Humanity, and Shelterboxusa. (Edited for a massive typo due to lack of caffeine.) As for ratings, always check at least 3 ratings sites and even then, if you’re not reading the detail and financial reports, take ratings with a grain of salt. Charitynavigator gives the American Red Cross (this is not your local Red Cross, btw) a 4 star rating. And we’ve seen how that goes.
But: yes, Cuba, the British and US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and most of the Caribbean/West Indies, are devastated right now. Let’s not forget about them just because Western media is focused on the fact that Disney World closed.
