In Lafayette, LA, Financial Assistance Funds is dedicated to supporting children with special health care needs and their families by alleviating the financial burdens they face. Our program offers vital assistance, covering a range of costs that include medical expenses, such as prescriptions and medical supplies, as well as non-medical needs like home and vehicle modifications, clothing, and essential daily living costs like food and utilities. We also help with healthcare-related transportation and lodging expenses to ensure that families can access necessary medical services without added stress. Each family can receive up to $500 per year, with requests processed in the order received and reviewed within a minimum of 15 business days. We understand the urgency of these needs and are committed to providing timely support while also being open to reviewing other requests case-by-case, always prioritizing the well-being of families in our community.
