Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Douglas, AZ, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial hardships. Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance to families with children in need by offering support for utilities, housing, and transportation through gas cards, as well as grocery cards to ease the burden of everyday expenses. We ensure a compassionate and confidential application process, verified through the child's medical team, which allows us to prioritize the families we serve. To apply for assistance, hospital staff must submit applications on behalf of families, as direct contact is not permitted to maintain confidentiality. We encourage applicants to follow up with a confirmation email to ensure application receipt, helping us to facilitate a timely response. At Patches of Light, we believe in lifting up those who are enduring difficult times with care and respect.
