Financial Assistance

Located in Venice, FL, Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families with children who are facing catastrophic health challenges and accompanying financial difficulties. Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, gas cards, and grocery cards to alleviate the burdens these families encounter. We collaborate closely with medical teams to ensure confidentiality and verify each request, underscoring our commitment to compassionate care. Families cannot apply directly; instead, applications must be submitted by hospital staff, with processing times typically ranging from 2-3 weeks. To streamline communication and ensure the application is received, we encourage sending a confirmation email after submission. At Patches of Light, we strive to be a beacon of hope and practical support during life's most challenging moments.
