Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Kaplan, LA, who are grappling with catastrophic health issues and financial strain. We provide essential financial assistance, including support for utilities, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards to alleviate some of the burdens faced during difficult times. Our unique approach requires that applications come through the child's medical team, ensuring confidentiality and authenticity in each case. We ask that families do not contact us directly but rather work with hospital staff to initiate assistance requests, which can take 2-3 weeks for consideration. For a smoother process, we encourage applicants to follow up with an email confirming the submission of their application, enhancing communication and efficiency in our service delivery. At Patches of Light, we are here to help families find light in their darkest moments.
