Louisiana's trusted resource and supportive community for individuals & families affected by bleeding disorders
Together, we make a difference in the lives of our community
Committed to improving lives by supporting Louisiana
people, families, and communities with bleeding disorders,
through impactful programs.
Our mission is to improve the quality of life and assist persons affected by bleeding disorders by providing education, advocacy, support services and by promoting research.
The Louisiana Hemophilia Foundation was established in 1976 to help Louisiana residents with hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and other bleeding disorders, lead normal and productive lives. We are a 501 (C) 3 Organization.
Our funding comes from a variety of sources that include fundraising events. Additionally, pharmaceutical and home health companies make donations and sponsor events. We also receive funding from the Huey and Angelina Wilson Foundation. Another great source of our funding are the individual donations received from affected families, their friends, and those who support our cause.

​
We are operated locally in Baton Rouge. Our Board of Directors have a wealth of experience and depth in dealing with the world of bleeding disorders.

We serve as an information portal by distributing a quarterly newsletter, medical updates, literature, pamphlets and brochures.
We also offer a free library of books and other resources. LHF maintains directories of state and community services, as well as a directory of treatment centers nationwide.
