Financial Assistance

Patches of Light provides vital financial assistance to families in Brandon, FL, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues affecting their children. Our compassionate program supports families by helping cover essential expenses such as utilities, housing, and necessary travel through gas cards, as well as grocery cards to ensure access to food. To maintain strict confidentiality and verify the authenticity of each request, applications are processed exclusively through hospital staff who are working directly with the affected family. We understand that the wait can be difficult, with application evaluations taking approximately 2-3 weeks, and we encourage hospital staff to follow up with a confirming email to ensure timely processing. At Patches of Light, we are dedicated to offering care and support during these trying times, ensuring that no family faces their challenges alone.
