Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Iola, KS, who are navigating the challenging circumstances of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to provide practical financial assistance, offering crucial support for utilities, housing, and essential needs through gas and grocery cards. We work closely with medical teams to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of each case, as applications for aid must be submitted by hospital staff on behalf of the family, ensuring a streamlined process that respects the privacy of those involved. While we strive to process applications within 2-3 weeks, we kindly request that petitioners confirm the submission of their applications via email to ensure timely processing. Patches of Light stands by families during their most urgent times of need, helping them find a pathway toward stability and hope.
