The Percy R. Johnson Burn Foundation is a private, not for profit
organization seeking to ensure the availability of a comprehensive program
of services for burn patients and the families of burn patients receiving
treatment in the Shreveport-Bossier City area. The Burn Foundation helps
sponsor these programs including the annual Camp I'm Still Me for young
burn survivors from the states of Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi,
and Oklahoma. The Burn
Foundation has purchased a house where families of burn survivors
who require extensive treatment in the LSUHSC Regional Burn Center may
stay while their loved ones are in the
LSUHSC Burn Center's intensive care unit. |
| The Foundation was established in 1985 by former burn patients and local health care professionals involved in burn care. It was named in honor of Captain Percy R. Johnson, a Shreveport fire fighter who lost his life in the line of duty. For burn patients, physical care is only the first step in an often long and difficult recovery. The Burn Foundation needs the financial assistance and personal support of area individuals, civic organizations, businesses, and foundations to ensure that burn survivors have access to the full range of services and support required for optimal recovery. Gifts to the Burn Foundation are tax deductible and are used to establish and maintain local programs and services to help meet patient and family needs. These programs include Camp I.S.M. and the Chaler-Rods House for families of burn survivors as well as to help furnish needed medical supplies, equipment, and physical rehabilitation for the patients after they leave the hospital. |
