Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Hiawatha, KS, grappling with catastrophic health challenges and financial stress. Our mission is to alleviate some of this burden by offering financial assistance for essential needs such as utilities, housing, gas, and groceries. We work closely with each child's medical team to ensure that assistance is provided with the utmost confidentiality and integrity, allowing us to verify circumstances while safeguarding the privacy of families. Because applications must be submitted by hospital staff, we encourage clear communication and follow-up via email to confirm receipt, as this helps us expedite the review process. At Patches of Light, we understand the urgency of these situations and are committed to providing timely support to help families navigate difficult times.
