Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to assisting families in Pagosa Springs, CO, who are facing the dual challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial hardship. Our mission focuses on providing vital financial assistance that can help alleviate some of the burdens these families encounter. We offer support for essential needs including utility payments, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards, allowing families to focus on what truly matters—caring for their children. To ensure the integrity of the support we provide, applications must be submitted by hospital staff working directly with the family and typically take 2-3 weeks for processing. Due to our commitment to confidentiality and privacy, families are unable to apply directly or communicate with us regarding applications. We recommend that every application be accompanied by a confirming email to ensure it is received, helping us serve families more efficiently during these challenging times.
