Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Naknek, AK, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial hardship. Our mission focuses on providing essential financial assistance to families with children, ensuring they have the resources for critical needs such as utilities, housing, and daily necessities. We offer gas cards and grocery cards to alleviate some of the burdens during these difficult times. Applications for assistance must be initiated by hospital staff and can take 2-3 weeks for consideration, emphasizing our commitment to confidentiality and proper verification. While we value communication, we kindly ask that families refrain from direct contact regarding their application status, as this helps us maintain privacy and focus on processing requests efficiently. A confirmation email upon submission can greatly assist us in tracking applications, ensuring families receive the support they need through their medical team.
