Allows nonprofit organizations to assist with the cost of installing fortified roofs for Louisiana Fortify Homes Program grant recipients.

The bill amends the Louisiana Fortify Homes Program to allow nonprofit organizations to provide additional resources to cover the cost of installing a fortified roof for grant recipients. This change aims to support homeowners in enhancing their property's resilience against severe weather. The bill defines "nonprofit organization" as any entity exempt from federal and state taxation. It becomes effective upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, upon the expiration of the time for gubernatorial action.
