Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is a compassionate organization based in Cottonwood, AZ, dedicated to supporting families with children enduring catastrophic health challenges and financial struggles. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens these families face by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, as well as gas and grocery cards. To ensure confidentiality and a smooth application process, we work closely with the child's medical team, which submits requests on behalf of the family. Although families cannot apply directly, we encourage hospital staff to assist in submitting applications, which typically take 2-3 weeks for consideration. To enhance communication and expedite processing, we kindly ask for a confirmation email upon application submission. At Patches of Light, we are committed to making a meaningful impact during difficult times and providing the necessary support families need to navigate their challenges with care.
