Financial Assistance Funds

Financial Assistance Funds, based in Ponchatoula, LA, is dedicated to supporting children with special health care needs and their families by providing essential financial resources. Our program facilitates assistance for a variety of medical costs, including prescriptions, medical bills, and durable medical equipment, as well as non-medical expenses such as home and vehicle modifications, clothing, and everyday essentials like diapers and food. We also help cover healthcare-related travel costs, lodging, and utilities to ease the financial burden faced by families. Grants of up to $500 per family per year are available for direct support, with requests reviewed in the order they are received. We aim to respond to all inquiries swiftly, allowing for a minimum of 15 business days for grant assessments, and we are committed to carefully evaluating any additional requests that may arise.
