Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Ruston, LA, who are grappling with catastrophic health challenges and financial difficulties. Our program offers essential financial assistance to help with vital needs, including utility bills, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards. We work closely with children's medical teams to ensure the confidentiality and authenticity of each application, which must be submitted by hospital staff on behalf of the family. Understanding the urgency of these situations, we aim to process applications within 2-3 weeks, while encouraging confirmation via email to ensure smooth communication and expedite support. At Patches of Light, we are committed to providing compassionate and practical assistance to families during their most challenging times.
