According to the Cuban Newspaper website, Dayan Rodríguez, uncle of the Cuban brothers Eduardo and Bryan Cruz Pérez, who died in a devastating fire in Uruguay, called on the community to support his fundraising.
The objective is to fulfill the emotional will of the young people: to take them back to Cuba to rest in peace. The deadline is August 5, and every contribution counts in this moving fight.
Last week, the news of the tragic death of Eduardo and Bryan shocked the Cuban community abroad. Since then, their loved ones have not ceased in their efforts to gather the necessary resources to allow them to repatriate the bodies to their native country.
The 21 and 23-year-old brothers lost their lives in a devastating fire that consumed the house where they lived in the city of Pando, in the Montevideo metropolitan area.
The incident occurred in a block masonry house with a lightweight roof, located at kilometer 37 of Route 75 and Camino Erosa. Shortly before 7:00 pm, the firefighters arrived at the scene and unfortunately found the lifeless bodies of the young people.
With sincere thanks for the support received so far, Rodríguez shared that the collection has reached almost 14,000 dollars, but there is still one last push to reach the goal of 16,400 USD, the amount required for the transfer of the bodies.
Each donation, regardless of its size, becomes essential in this sad chapter that seeks to give a dignified and loving closure to the lives of the brothers. The strength of the Pérez family has been inspiring, and the uncle of the youngsters stresses that they will not rest until the goal is achieved. The deadline is drawing near, but hope and commitment remain intact as everyone is invited to join this moving cause.
Cecilia Pérez, cousin of the brothers, shared words full of love and nostalgia. She expressed the immense pain that overwhelms the family and the lack of the two young people with their smiles and selfless love. Her desire to go back in time to hug them one more time and tell them how much she loves them is a sentiment shared by many.
The fundraising campaign offers several options to support, including transfers through Zelle and CashApp. Each contribution counts so that the mother of the young people can see her children for the last time.
In times of loss and adversity, the support of the community is a beacon of hope. The story of the Cruz Pérez brothers transcends borders and reminds us of the importance of union and love among compatriots.
