Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Harrington, DE, who are facing the dual challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to alleviate some of this burden by providing essential financial assistance, including help with utilities, housing payments, gas cards, and grocery cards. We collaborate closely with hospital staff to ensure that applications are handled with the utmost care, confidentiality, and efficiency, typically taking 2-3 weeks for consideration. It is important to note that applications must be submitted by the child’s medical team, as families are not able to apply directly. For faster processing, we encourage confirmation of application submission through email, as this helps us maintain our commitment to timely assistance during these critical times.
