RECOVERY SUCCESS - RICHMOND VA
Early Sunday, UCN was invited by friends of the Erway Family to join the search for Sarah Erway who went missing on Memorial Day while on the James River with 11 other friends. The group went over a dam which led to 10 being rescued and 2 missing. Lauren and Sarah. Early Monday Morning UCN arrived and was in constant contact with the Mother of Sarah Erway. Around 7:30 AM a body sighting occurred and we immediately proceeded to the area. Fire fighters confirmed that a body was located. UCN - Chad and Sam remained on site with the immediate family until fire and police cleared out. We are happy that this family now has closure and one of our volunteers stated that the Faith and Love for the Lord was overwhelming. They said it will be an experience they will never forget and ask that we keep praying for the family.
Through the support and love of our donors two of our SAR drones where used in this search! We are hoping to get additional funding to purchase more batteries and eliminate the need to bring generators!
We are so happy to bring this story to you guys! If you want to learn more about Sarah Erway please read the People.com article here: https://people.com/human-interest/body-found-in-river-presumed-to-be-missing-woman-who-went-over-va-dam-on-memorial-day/
The families of both Lauren and Sarah stated that the others involved mentioned they died helping them get to the surface. True Heros. UCN will never forget.

United Cajun Navy - Partnered with JB hunt to bring in over 48 pallets of clothing to get to those in need from Texas to Pennsylvania during this winter event.
Currently we are still deploying supplies and volunteers in remote areas that the winter storm has impacted ensuring we do not have a repeat of the 250+ lives lost in 2021 when Texas and Louisiana experienced the deep freeze.
We want to remind those who are using generators to make sure they are at least 50 feet in distance from any homes to help prevent possible carbon monoxide poisoning . This gas does not smell and is one of the worse things we need in the aftermath of any disaster that can cause a death toll to rise. All current donations are going to help provide supplies, k1 kero, Blankets, and food items.
Thanks to all our supports and loved ones during these cold months. Volunteer or Donate!! We are always looking for help!

SEACOR Update:
United Cajun Navy continues to fund fuel for the seaplanes flying in the search efforts. However, the next few days we will be limiting flight time due to forecasting winds. The search efforts will start including the use of shrimp boats to aid in the search of the missing crewman. If anyone or knows of anyone that could assist with searching please reach out to our United Cajun navy shrimp coordinator Christifer DeRouen who is helping to organize the search and coordinates of the missing crewman with full support of the missing crewman's family.
This is a MASSIVE search and rescue by United Cajun navy and we need as much assistance as we can get. We are continuing our search efforts today by plane. We will need continued funding for the fuel.
Please go to www.thecajunnavy.org to donate, request assistance or volunteers. We thank all of you for watching, praying and holding with us during this time.

Currently United Cajun Navy is fully deployed in Louisiana in search for a missing LSU Student who disappeared on 4/6/2021. We are searching via helicopters, boats, ATVS, Horses, and over 150 volunteers.
Please check out our Facebook as this story unfolds and we help the family bring back their little girl. We are seeking any support possible to help offset fuel and meals. Right now what we are asking for is prayer if you can not help give. The power of prayer can go along way, especially here.

Good Morning UCN Community!
Many of you have been asking... How bad was the storm? I can say that it was not as bad as hurricane season! However for the parts of Alabama and Mississippi that got impacted by tornados relief work is already being decided on and logistics are forming.
Urgent Relief Needs:
Food/Water/Medical Supplies. If you want to even send us a box of Band-Aids that would great!
Major Organization Request:
We lost our forklift due to damage! We have a URGENT need for a forklift if one can be donated that is great and we can arrange pickup ANYWHERE in the USA! If your business or friends may be able to sponsor us in obtaining a forklift it will be dedicated with logos on it and get widespread attention every disaster! The average cost of a used forklift is 11,000 to 16,000. Please reach out to your friends, family, businesses, and other charities to see if we can have this need filled ASAP!

United Cajun Navy is attempting to locate any space heaters in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. The posted map shows the extremely dangerous freezing temperatures currently being experienced across those states. Factor this with the over 2 Million residents that currently do not have power its a very serious situation. United Cajun Navy has generators and gasoline but lacks the heaters to deploy for those in need. IF you have a heater that you can offer please let us know by by our website: www.TheCajunNavy.org or our Facebook www.Facebook.com/UnitedCajunNavy
All funds received 2/15 through 2/18 will go towards Amazon Prime orders for Blankets and Heaters for this Winter Emergency.

Operation Jolo, WV.
Through the tunnels of West Virginia we maked a journey unlike no other.
Jolo, WV residing in McDowell County is plagued with high unemployment after the decline of the coal industry, McDowell County’s population has dwindled from nearly 100,000 in 1950 to around 19,000 today. The government deems McDowell County to be the poorest in the nation, as well as the place with the lowest life expectancy due to high smoking and obesity rates. In the past 15 years, the opioid epidemic in this region has killed more people than anywhere else in the nation, except in neighboring Wyoming County.
We provided a glimmer of hope providing the children, who most are raised by grandparents and living in places you would only see in 3rd world countries... new winter jackets and pants, water, tarps, tools and a few pairs of work gloves. Seeing first hand the immediate attention this area needs, United Cajun Navy will be going back with additional supplies.
I can not put into words the feelings and thoughts while UCN was on the ground. There is no cellular service for miles the area is surrounded by mountains the size of sky scrapers. Shacks in the side of the hills and the bottom of the ravines are the only signs of life. It was asked why residents do not move out of the area and what we where told just made my wife tear up.. Most of the population has the education of 3rd graders with many not having the ability to read. Where would they be able to go? For most of the residents this is life. Our plans for this in 2021 will be to provide food, refurbished computers, and additional building supplies to the Family Worship Center ran by Pastor Charlie Rose.
We need help funding transportation and supply. If you are interested in donating items or even going to the town to help please email [email protected]

With 9 days to go to hit out 100K mark we are asking everyone to offer one last final push on this giving campaign. Please share it out with everyone you know! Currently UCN is doing not only Christmas in Louisiana, Alabama and Florida but we have been actively doing search and rescue to help find Zeb Hughes, 21, and Gunner Palmer, 16, who went missing after launching their boat in the waters for a duck hunting trip.
