Jamie's Hurricane Fiona Mission

2022 Impact Report Edition
Harper4Humanity | September, 2022 | Lviv, Ukraine

When Hurricane Fiona began ravaging Puerto Rico in September, MPOWERD Ambassador, humanitarian, and celebrity makeup artist Jamie Harper booked a flight from NYC to ground zero.

In what would be her 19th humanitarian mission, she felt especially committed to providing aid to her home country. However, coordinating supplies to be delivered directly to Puerto.

Rico during a hurricane, including 150 Luci Pro Series, is nothing short of challenging. At the same time, weather conditions and scarce resources can make shipping and receiving nearly impossible. However, with the help

of MPOWERD’s rockstar logistics team, Luci lights landed just in time to meet Jamie there. She then got to work hand-delivering them to families without power and some without a recognizable home.

Unfortunately, roads had been washed away from the severe flooding, making it especially difficult to reach certain areas, but not even that can stop Jamie Harper. She made it through all kinds of obstacles to deliver food, lights, dog and cat food, clean drinking water from Waves4Water, and countless comforting hugs to people who had lost everything. Seeing the devastation and hearing people’s stories of loss and extreme hardship keeps a person like Jamie determined to do anything she can, including reaching out to get assistance from companies and organizations like MPOWERD, Jeep, Waves4Water, and others, even using her own resources to make it happen.

“Thank you, MPOWERD, for providing Luci lights! They were extremely helpful to the many people still without electricity,” she stated. “You made a lot of people smile.”

Give a Luci to support organizations like Jamie's and help have a positive impact communities around the world.
