Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Niantic, CT, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues alongside financial struggles. Our focus is on providing essential financial assistance, including support for utilities, housing costs, and vital transportation and food resources such as gas and grocery cards. To uphold the dignity and privacy of the families we serve, applications for assistance must be submitted by hospital staff involved with the family, and we maintain strict confidentiality throughout the process. We understand that timely support is crucial, so we encourage hospital staff to follow up with a confirmation email to ensure that applications are received, allowing us to process requests effectively and compassionately. Together, we strive to illuminate the path during these difficult times, providing practical help where it's needed most.
