Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to providing essential financial assistance to families with children who are facing catastrophic health challenges in Aberdeen, MD. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens these families experience during difficult times by offering support for utilities, housing, gas, and grocery expenses. We work closely with hospital staff to ensure each application is handled with care and confidentiality, as only medical teams can submit requests on behalf of families. Our application process typically takes 2-3 weeks, and we encourage applicants to send a confirmation email upon submission to help us efficiently track and process requests. Patches of Light prioritizes the well-being of every family we serve, ensuring that our assistance makes a meaningful difference in their lives during times of need.
