Financial Assistance

Patches of Light provides essential financial assistance to families in Lafayette, IN, with children facing serious health challenges and financial difficulties. Our dedicated program offers support in various forms, including help with utility bills, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards. To maintain confidentiality and ensure authenticity, applications can only be submitted by hospital staff working closely with the family in need; unfortunately, we are unable to accept applications directly from families or provide updates to them. We strive to process requests efficiently, taking about 2-3 weeks for consideration, and encourage hospital staff to follow up with an email to confirm receipt of applications, as this greatly aids our processing efforts. At Patches of Light, we are committed to standing by families during their most challenging times, offering both practical support and understanding as they navigate their circumstances.
