Financial Assistance

Patches of Light in Bogalusa, LA, is dedicated to supporting families with children who are facing catastrophic health challenges and financial distress. Our mission is to provide crucial financial assistance, specifically helping with utilities, housing, gas cards, and grocery cards to alleviate some of the burdens during difficult times. We prioritize working closely with children's medical teams to ensure that all requests are verified and handled with utmost confidentiality. Families are encouraged to apply through their hospital staff, as direct contact with applicants regarding the application process is not permitted. Applications are processed within 2-3 weeks, and we recommend following up with a brief email to confirm the receipt of requests, helping us to manage and expedite assistance effectively.
