No. Credit cards don't exist in Cuba. Not for Cubans, at least. Banks only issue debit cards. Credit cards do work here, but only those brought by foreigners, and not all of them. I think only Visa and MasterCard work.
I never include a fund in my budget to help anyone. However, that doesn't mean that, when the need arises, I can't adjust it and lend a helping hand. In my country, that's something we do almost daily, in one way or another. I think it's one of the values ​​we haven't lost after this whole economic crisis we're experiencing.

You have a much simpler life @daveza. My life has many different financial obligations, so I added that fund category to track. I end up giving away the remaining amount to my chosen charities at year end. I am literally have to file stacks of government bureaucracy to prove my compliance to the multitude of taxes and public benefits. It is beyond ridiculous.
