With the support of Johnson & Johnson, HIV South Africa (a program of the Baragwanath Hospital Perinatal HIV Research Unit) has provided a wide variety of Johnson & Johnson healthcare products to community-based organizations that provide care and support to HIV patients in their homes.

The project has both an urban and a rural component, which together serve approximately 3,500 households at any given time. The project involves 39 home-based care partner organizations in Soweto and distributes approximately 2,500 healthcare product packs monthly. The product donation is complemented by distribution support, caregiver training and program monitoring. Supplemental support also is provided to selected hospice organizations.
