Colors for a Cause ~ Louisiana, an approved non-profit 501c3 charity organization, was founded in 2011 as a way to honor 10 year old Brennan Daigle from Westlake, Louisiana whose battle with cancer created an army of supporters worldwide. Our organization helps Louisiana families who have children battling cancer by providing financial assistance for mortgage/rent, utilities, travel expenses for m
edical treatment, and we also conduct a Christmas Outreach program to help provide these families with funds and/or gifts for the children of the family. Since forming the non-profit in 2011, we have been honored to provide over $480,000.00 in assistance to Louisiana families who are fighting cancer. We currently are assisting numerous children and their families from Calcasieu, Beauregard, Vernon, Allen, Cameron, Jeff Davis Parishes who are bravely fighting this disease. This is made possible by donations that are made to our organization by citizens, churches, school and youth oriented organizations and by businesses/corporations. We also have project vehicles that we use as βrolling billboardsβ to honor our little cancer warriors. Our vehicles are dedicated to cancer victims and are used to support fundraisers for cancer research, individual cancer patients, family support of cancer patients, and to draw awareness of the need for more research, funding and to increase awareness about all forms of cancer. By utilizing the retired vehicles once used by our country's Fire, Police, Military, and EMS personnel, we hope to remind people that even heroes have heroes. Our heroes are the people that fight hard every day against cancer. They fight a battle that is long and hard and not fought fairly by their enemy. Our cancer fighting heroes are winning that battle, and we're there to help them to win it, any way we can. The spirit and strength of our founder, Brennan Daigle, lives on in everything we do, every project we complete, and every challenge we undertake. Brennan's legacy will live on through Colors for a Cause ~ Louisiana as we strive to increase awareness of the need for more research, funding, and knowledge about all forms of cancer affecting children in our communities.
