Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Burlington, KS, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial difficulties. Our mission is to alleviate some of the stress these families face by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, and transportation, as well as grocery cards to ensure access to food. We work closely with the child's medical team to maintain confidentiality and verify the need for assistance, ensuring that all applications are managed with care and discretion. Although families cannot apply directly, we encourage hospital staff to submit applications, which we aim to review within 2-3 weeks. To streamline this process, we appreciate a confirmation email upon submission, helping us ensure every request is received and handled efficiently. At Patches of Light, we are here to lend a helping hand during difficult times, offering support where it's needed most.
