Outreach Aid to the Americas (OAA) was founded in 1994 to support and help strengthen the national leadership and capacity of the emerging independent Cuban Christian Church, while meeting humanitarian needs in the island. OAA has acquired unique knowledge on operating successfully in Cuba's challenging environment and has developed a network that consists of over 600 organized faith-based groups. Guided by Christian faith, OAA is a development ministry that (1) identifies, nurtures, resources, encourages, and develops effective leaders within their own culture; (2) helps the emerging new church community to modernize and build institutional strength, as well as organizational and administrative capacity; (3) develops innovative outreach events that will open doors for the gospel; and (4) creates awareness and provides opportunities through mission trips for individuals and churches in North America.

ECHOcuba provides hope and assistance to the hundreds of Independent Churches of Cuba and some who are not even recognized at all by the Communist government; many are known as house churches (Casas Culto). In communities around Cuba, we join with these courageous persecuted warriors to help them survive the daily battles of communism.
Disaster Preparedness; Disaster Response; Food Security; Humanitarian Assistance; and Strengthening Resilience of Vulnerable Communities. The overall purpose of our Relief Programs is to benefit disaster victims, reduce the suffering of the most vulnerable groups in the Americas, and to provide tools & resources needed to increase their preparedness & self-sufficiency.
ECHOcuba’s network of over 800 churches and ministries in Cuba are independent from the government controlled Cuban Council of Churches. However, Cuba continues to be won for Christ, with over 3,000 house churches and seminaries dedicated to spreading the Good News. The politically independent churches conduct a range of social projects, from elderly and child care, educational and pastoral support, to micro-enterprise, business, and community leadership development.
