Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Unalaska, AK, who are navigating the challenging circumstances of catastrophic health issues and financial hardship. Our mission is to provide practical financial assistance to families with children facing these difficult times, which includes support for utility bills, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards. We work closely with the child’s medical team to ensure confidentiality and authenticity in each application, which must be submitted by hospital staff, not families directly. We understand the urgency of these situations, and applications are typically considered within 2-3 weeks. To streamline the process, we encourage confirmatory emails upon submission, helping us efficiently track and address each request. At Patches of Light, we are here to offer hope and tangible support during life's most trying moments.
