Located in Lewes, DE, Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families navigating the daunting challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance to families with children in need, offering support for utilities, housing, gas, and grocery expenses. We emphasize a collaborative approach by working closely with the child's medical team to ensure each case is handled with utmost confidentiality and care. Applications for assistance, which take approximately 2-3 weeks for consideration, must be submitted by hospital staff on behalf of the family. We encourage everyone involved to send a follow-up email upon application submission to confirm its receipt, allowing us to process requests efficiently and provide timely relief during these critical times.
