Financial Assistance

Patches of Light serves families in Quincy, IL, who are navigating the difficult intersection of catastrophic health challenges and financial strain. Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance to families with children in need, offering support for utilities, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards. To ensure confidentiality and a streamlined process, all applications must be submitted by hospital staff working directly with the family, as families themselves cannot apply. We prioritize prompt communication regarding application submissions, encouraging staff to confirm via email to avoid technological hiccups. Our goal is to facilitate timely assistance, so families can focus on what matters most—their child's health and well-being.
