Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Gardner, KS, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to provide critical financial assistance that includes help with utilities, housing support, gas cards, and grocery cards. We are committed to ensuring that assistance is delivered confidentially and efficiently, working directly with hospital staff to verify requests. Due to the sensitive nature of our services, we prioritize privacy and cannot engage directly with applicants. Therefore, we encourage families to connect through their medical teams, ensuring that all requests are communicated effectively. Applications typically take 2-3 weeks to process, and we recommend sending a confirmation email to track the submission of any requests, as this helps us serve families more efficiently during their time of need.
