Patches of Light provides essential financial assistance to families in Old Saybrook, CT, coping with catastrophic health challenges and financial strain. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens faced by families with children undergoing significant medical treatments. We offer support with utility bills, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards to help families maintain stability during difficult times. To ensure a streamlined and confidential process, applications can only be submitted by hospital staff who work directly with the family, and typically take 2-3 weeks for consideration. We encourage hospital personnel to follow up with an email confirming the submission of applications, as this aids us in processing requests efficiently and maintaining the privacy of each family's situation. We are dedicated to providing compassionate support during these challenging times, helping families focus on what matters most—the health and well-being of their children.
