Patches of Light in New London, CT is dedicated to supporting families with children who are experiencing catastrophic health issues and financial difficulties. Our mission focuses on providing essential financial assistance to help cover utilities, housing costs, gas, and grocery needs, ensuring that families can prioritize their child's health without overwhelming financial stress. Assistance is accessed through a streamlined application process, which takes about 2-3 weeks for consideration and must be submitted by the child's medical team, preserving the confidentiality and integrity of each case. We encourage hospital staff to confirm the submission of applications via email to enhance communication and ensure timely processing, as we prioritize the well-being of the families we serve by maintaining clear and secure lines of support. At Patches of Light, we strive to illuminate the path for those in need with care and compassion.
