NET FOR CUBA INTERNATIONAL
Base, structure, and fundamental purposes
a. The organization:
Net for Cuba International is a non-profit organization legally
established under the statutes of the state of Florida since 2002, with
the mission to educate and inform the national and international general
public through internet communications, about the real situation in Cuba
today under the regime of Fidel Castro.
b. Our work methodology comprises three fundamental directions:
1. Official internet site:
www.netforcuba.org
a) This is in English and Spanish, with an average of more than
10,000 pages with general information and up-to-date news about the
situation in Cuba, newspaper articles, informative materials about the
ruling communist system, photographic material, videos, etc.
b) It informs and educates international public opinion via
Internet, about the true situation in Cuba in respect to its political,
economic and social environment.
c) It constantly denounces the violation of civil and human rights
by the regime of Fidel Castro against the Cuban people. This is
achieved through close cooperation with organizations, groups, and
projects established throughout the world that maintain direct contact
with the opposition inside the island.
d) It serves as support for activities, projects, international
campaigns, press communiqués, etc., of organizations, groups and
projects of exile groups, the goal of which is to condemn and denounce
the totalitarian nature of the Castro regime and are looking for a
radical change to it.
e) It saves general information and news about what is happening
in Cuba as a means of consulting public opinion.
2. NetforCuba Network
a) Constitutes an ample net of electronic mail worldwide grouped
into seven fundamental groups: Press, Human Rights Organizations, Red
Cross International, Governments, Leftist Organizations, Mail inside
Cuba and the general public.
b) It serves as a means for professional cyber channeling to
organizations, groups and/or projects inside Cuba or in exile, that
desire to communicate their information and messages in favor of the
freedom of Cuba.
c) It sends a clear message from the Cuban people and its
organizations to the world.
d) It connects Cubans and friends of their causes throughout the
world, so as to remain informed and alert about what happens in Cuba and
in the exile community, so that our voices can be raised no matter where
in the world one is.
e) It gives everyone the opportunity without exception to work
for Cuba from the comfort of their homes, not only by searching for new
electronic mails to which to forward information, but also to share it
with friends and family. That is precisely the objective of our work, to
constantly search for new avenues to disseminate the truth about Cuba to
keep touching hearts and consciences throughout the world.
3. Assistance to internet sites.
Design and advice to internet sites belonging to organization or groups
in the exile community. This has become a fundamental priority for us
since we believe that each new site is a window to denounce the Castro
regime.
c. Our philosophy and Reason for Being:
As indicated by our mission statement, our organization exists to
educate and inform the national and international public about the
reality of Cuba today through internet technology, with the objective of
bringing fundamental changes in the social, political, and economic
system inside Cuba. Based in this principle, we would like to make the
following clear:
1. Our fight is a frontal one, and so that is how we approach it.
Our enemy is the repressive regime of Fidel Castro and their machinery
of terror and death; and our policy is clear and well defined: to
denounce and to combat it, and to that end we direct our efforts and
energy.
2. Net for Cuba International reserves the right to publish what
it deems appropriate. We will never publish information aimed at
slandering anyone involved in the fight against the Castro regime,
criticize in a destructive manner the contents of a document or project,
or confuse public opinion by publishing ill-intended declarations to
minimize or cause harm to the work of individual groups, organizations
or persons either inside the island or in the exile community, because
that contradicts our assumed vertical position. In other words, we
publish what unites, adds, and strengthens our fighting front, and we
reject anything that aims at separating and weakening us.
3. The Fidel Castro regime has spent millions of dollars to lie
to people worldwide about the true situation in Cuba. It is our job to
close ranks and recognize this reality, more so because there is an
entire people languishing in the most cruel and terrible ostracism. In
the name of that Cuba that suffers, Jose Marti’s words, “To unite is a
must” should inspire now more than ever the soul and heart of all
Cubans.
d. Call to Action:
As we said before, each one of us can work for Cuba from home. Here is
some direction for those who wish to do it:
1. Must have a computer and access to Internet;
2. Subscribe to NetforCubaNetwork through our official emails of
massive distribution:
loupagani@netforcuba.org and
nfc@netforcuba.org This
will make you a member of Net for Cuba.
3. You must have fifteen minutes a day available.
4. Make a list of emails of friends and family members to whom the
information received would be forwarded to. In this context, we ask of
you to leave our source: Net for Cuba Internatinal (www.netforcuba.org)
as part of the forwarded mail. It is very important that our internet
site keep being divulged in an unlimited and constant manner.
5. Search for groups or forums that deal with the Cuban thematic. Once
localized, publish in them the information received. Important:
Priority should be given to those forums that belong to written press,
radio, or television to take advantage of the high number of visitors
they get.
6. We ask that those people that have access to a radio or
television program or have the opportunity to write for a newspaper in
the community where they live, help us with the dissemination of any
information received.
e. Our Message:
We will continue disseminating, networking, and strengthening through
the internet. We will continue to grow, and impel the work of those that
look to overthrow the communist tyranny with the Cuba that suffers in
our hearts hoping for a future with justice, democracy and freedom for
all Cubans.
