These times are difficult in the family and social spheres; however, sharing part of what is achieved through daily work remains a banner for many peasants in Las Tunas and now extends to the new economic actors.

Las Tunas, Cuba.- One of them, Yosvanys Fernández Rodríguez, prefers to help in silence, almost anonymously and has put it into practice more than once. But, in the face of events like this, someone warns and almost conspires to let other people know that solidarity still exists and makes us more human.

A simple gesture collects in itself the sweat that also waters the furrows, and the sleepless nights and early mornings to avoid the tricky hand of the thieves. At the same time, it is a marvelous act, which for many gives new hope and alleviates worries.

"This is from the heart," says the tenant of the El Perejil organogenic in this city, who arrived at the 108th constituency of the Popular Council (CP, in Spanish) 18, in the community of Río Potrero, with a load of rice, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, tomato, cucumber, and peppers.

The recipients were 25 families with an aging population - including two over 100 years old - or with cancer or other illnesses, prostrate people, and various conditions that make them vulnerable.

"You have to help people and it's easy for me because I'm very human. I don't aspire to riches, nor am I giving what I can spare. I work to produce food and that production is for the people. This is just the beginning because I will do it again.

His will comforts Ricardo Romero Drake, president of the CP, who says that his constituents have systematically received different gestures of solidarity from these new actors of the current socio-economic activity of the territory.

"I believe that this donation to the community is of great benefit. We can appreciate the gratitude of the beneficiaries, most of whom are older adults and others with certain ailments that prevent them from working and who are assisted. We recognize and thank the producer and hope to embrace him always here in our community.”

Among the beneficiaries, there was much gratitude. Someone wished for blessings. Others gave kisses and hugs. Most asked with faith that the results would multiply for those who gave part of their crops without thinking about the monetary cost of the products.

Some humbly thanked and urged those present to also help by planting vegetables and condiments in their backyards. "For many, it will be difficult, because of their physical conditions, but it could solve some of the needs in their homes."

This is what it is all about, to join help, will, sensitivity, and efforts; to feel that the problems of others are our own, that everyone contributes even a little, and to leave the productive units to walk the neighborhoods and stop just where a generous heart is most needed.
