Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Glastonbury, CT, who are facing the dual challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to provide critical financial assistance to families with children, helping cover essential needs such as utilities, housing costs, grocery expenses, and transportation through gas cards. Collaborating closely with hospital staff, we ensure the authenticity of each request while maintaining strict confidentiality. To apply for assistance, applications must be submitted by a child's medical team, as we focus on preserving the privacy of families in difficult situations. We kindly encourage all petitioners to send a confirming email upon application submission to confirm receipt, which helps us streamline the review process. Together, we aim to bring light and hope to families during their most challenging times.
