Yes, during the American Revolutionary War, France provided significant support to the American colonists, including financial aid, military supplies, arms, and gunpowder. This assistance was part of France's strategy to undermine British power and influence. The French formally entered the war on the side of the Americans in 1778, significantly bolstering their efforts against Britain.
As the American Revolutionary War progressed, George Washington had too concerns about troop help from France. His first concern was that France would not send enough troops to help the Americans. His other concern was ironical. He was concerned that France would send so many troops over to America, that France might be tempted to replace the British as "rulers" of the Americans.
The French armed and trained the revolutionaries from the start of the war. France officialy entered in war later and send soldiers and its navy in order to destroy the British navy. The Battle of Yorktown, the final battle of the war, wouldn't have been won without the French. I speak about the American War of Independence, because I can't imagine the French helping the Patriots in the French Revolution... ?

Not wishing to support a doomed cause, and waiting to see how spirited the Americans would (and could) resist British force, the French were convinced by the American victory at Saratoga that lending support would be a worthy investment in American and their own efforts against the British.
