Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Lyons, KS, who are facing the dual challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial distress. We specialize in providing essential financial assistance to families with children in need, helping cover critical expenses such as utilities and housing costs. Additionally, we offer gas and grocery cards to ease some of the burdens during difficult times. Our application process, which typically takes 2-3 weeks, is designed with confidentiality in mind; submissions must come from hospital staff working directly with the family, as families are not able to apply themselves. To streamline requests and ensure timely processing, we encourage applicants to confirm the arrival of their submissions via email. At Patches of Light, we remain committed to working closely with the child’s medical team to verify needs while upholding the utmost standards of privacy and support.
