Financial Assistance

Located in Harvey, LA, Patches of Light is dedicated to assisting families with children who are facing catastrophic health challenges and financial difficulties. Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance that helps alleviate the burden of urgent expenses, including utility bills, housing costs, and access to gas and grocery cards. We work directly with medical teams to ensure that each application is handled with care and confidentiality, recognizing the sensitive nature of these situations. Please note that assistance can only be requested through hospital staff, and families are not able to apply independently. It typically takes 2-3 weeks to process applications, and we kindly ask that each request is followed by an email to confirm receipt, as this helps us manage incoming applications efficiently and ensures timely support for families in need.
