Financial Assistance

Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Westminster, MD, with children enduring catastrophic health challenges and the financial strain that often accompanies them. Our mission is to alleviate some of this burden by offering essential financial assistance, including help with utility bills, housing expenses, gas cards, and grocery cards. To ensure the integrity and confidentiality of each case, applications for assistance are processed exclusively through hospital staff involved with the family, and typically take 2-3 weeks for consideration. We encourage applicants to confirm the receipt of their submissions via email, as this helps us efficiently manage and expedite the application process. At Patches of Light, we understand the complexities of these situations and are here to bring comfort and support during difficult times.
