Financial Assistance

Based in Russell, KS, Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families with children who are grappling with severe health challenges and financial instability. Our mission is to ease the burden by providing essential financial assistance such as help with utilities, housing support, gas cards, and grocery cards. We work closely with the child’s medical team to ensure confidentiality and accurate verification of each situation, as applications must be submitted by hospital staff on behalf of the family. While applications typically take 2-3 weeks to process, we encourage clarity and communication; confirming the arrival of your application via email can significantly enhance processing efficiency. At Patches of Light, we are committed to being a beacon of hope for families during their toughest times.
