Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Shreveport, LA, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial difficulties. We offer vital financial assistance, including help with housing and utility payments, as well as gas and grocery cards, ensuring families can focus on what truly matters: their child's health and well-being. Our application process, which typically takes 2-3 weeks, is designed to maintain privacy and is conducted solely through medical staff who are involved in the child's care—families cannot apply directly, ensuring sensitive situations are managed with the utmost confidentiality. To enhance the efficiency of our services, we encourage hospital staff to confirm the submission of applications via email, helping us to promptly and effectively process requests. At Patches of Light, we believe every family deserves support during their toughest moments, and we are here to help them find light amidst their struggles.
