Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in De Soto, KS, who are navigating the challenging intersection of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to provide comprehensive financial assistance, helping families cover essential expenses such as utilities, housing, and transportation, as well as offering grocery cards to alleviate some of the burden. We work closely with the child’s medical team to ensure the authenticity of each request, uphold confidentiality, and streamline the application process, which typically takes 2-3 weeks to assess. Since applications must be submitted by hospital staff, we encourage them to confirm the status of the application with a quick email, which helps us handle requests more efficiently. At Patches of Light, we are committed to being a beacon of hope during difficult times, offering practical support when families need it most.
