Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Thibodaux, LA, facing catastrophic health challenges and financial difficulties. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens families encounter during difficult times by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, and transportation, as well as grocery cards. Applications for support typically take 2-3 weeks to review and must be submitted through hospital staff working directly with the family, ensuring both authenticity and strict confidentiality. While we understand the challenges involved, direct communication from families regarding applications is not permitted to maintain privacy. To facilitate a smooth application process, we encourage families to follow up with an email confirming their application has been received, as this helps us address any potential technical issues promptly. At Patches of Light, we strive to provide compassionate, efficient support to those in need, allowing families to focus on healing and recovery.
