Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Wamego, KS, with children who are grappling with catastrophic health issues and financial challenges. Our mission is to provide vital financial assistance that alleviates some of the burdens during difficult times. We offer help with utility payments, housing costs, as well as gas and grocery cards to ensure that families can focus on what truly matters—caring for their children. The application process takes approximately 2-3 weeks, allowing the child's medical team to verify the need for assistance while maintaining confidentiality. We operate solely through hospital staff, who submit applications on behalf of families, ensuring a streamlined and supportive experience. We encourage petitioners to confirm receipt of their requests via email to enhance our communication and processing efficiency. Together, we strive to lighten the load for families in need.
