“Taking care of a chronically ill child is a lifetime journey. It is one of the most draining and difficult tasks a parent can face. Beyond handling physical challenges and medical needs, you have to deal with the emotional rollercoaster ride a prolonged illness takes the entire family on”.
The Laura Smile Foundation is specifically designed to provide financial assistance to eligible families so their children can start or continue critical, often life-saving medical treatments, surgeries or home hospitalization expenses they desperately need. These funds are to assist children 18 years old or younger living with chronic or life-altering conditions that their families are struggling to treat due to cost. Nothing else is more important for a parent than the health of their child – We understand the stress of financial burden that caring for a chronically ill child puts you under.
