Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Telluride, CO, who are facing the overwhelming challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our program provides vital financial assistance, helping cover essential expenses such as utilities, housing, and transportation through gas cards, as well as supplying grocery cards to ease daily burdens. To respect the privacy and dignity of those we assist, applications are processed through healthcare professionals involved in the child's care, ensuring strict confidentiality and authenticity verification. Families in need cannot apply directly; instead, we encourage hospital staff to submit applications on their behalf. We ask for confirmation via email upon submission to ensure smooth processing, as this greatly aids our ability to provide timely support during their time of need.
