Several Cubans demonstrated their solidarity with a mother who lost a backpack filled with school supplies for her children after accidentally leaving it on a bus in Havana.
Obbatalacita De Azowano Ramos, a concerned internet user, reached out to the distressed mother and gifted her a new backpack along with a lunchbox. This kind gesture was widely praised on social media.
"Please, help her. Her number is 50588005," Ramos requested in the Facebook group "Somos Mantilla."
The mother, identified as Damaris Díaz Scull, is a housewife residing in the Cotorro municipality. Damaris shared her ordeal in the Facebook group "LA CUEVITA EN LA GÜINERA," explaining that last Sunday, she took a white and blue quaqua bus back home and accidentally left the backpack containing her children's supplies.
"If anyone finds it, please contact me at 50588005. Please, return my children's belongings. No one knows the sacrifice I made to ensure my children are well-prepared for school. I don't have any more money to buy new supplies," she pleaded.
In the comments section, several people offered assistance. Joel Sousa Chávez, a merchant, offered her two boxes of crayons, two boxes of colored pencils, four erasers, and two sets of rulers. "It's not much, but at least it helps," he said.
