The recent hurricane has severely affected several of the parishes where many Persons Living with HIV (PLHIV) and JN+ community members reside. Communities in the western, southern, and northeastern regions were hit hardest, leaving families without basic supplies, safe shelter, and essential items needed for daily care.
JN+ is coordinating an emergency relief drive to support those most impacted. The focus is straightforward: restore dignity, safety, and stability for individuals who are now navigating the aftermath of the storm while also managing their health needs.
What’s Needed
Food & Water
Canned goods, dry food, baby formula, ready-to-eat snacks, seasonings, and bottled water.
Clothing
T-shirts, pants, shorts, footwear, children’s clothing, sweaters and jackets, socks and underwear, and rain gear.
Hygiene Items
Soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, sanitary pads, diapers, body wash, hand sanitizer, and wet wipes.
Other Essentials
Power banks, flashlights, batteries, first aid kits, mosquito repellents, garbage bags, resealable bags, umbrellas, and reusable water bottles.
Every item helps someone regain a sense of normalcy and protection after a difficult week.
Drop-Off Location

Why This Matters
Disasters deepen vulnerabilities. Many PLHIV already face challenges accessing care and support; losing housing, supplies, or transportation widens that gap even further. This relief effort ensures that affected individuals can meet their basic needs while remaining connected to treatment and care.
JN+ encourages partners, supporters, and the wider public to contribute what they can. Every donation — large or small — strengthens the community’s recovery.
