Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Chanute, KS, who are grappling with the dual challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to provide vital financial assistance that helps cover essential needs such as utilities, housing, and transportation through gas cards and grocery cards. To ensure confidentiality and the integrity of each case, we work directly with hospital staff who submit applications on behalf of families, allowing us to verify the information while upholding privacy. Families are encouraged to confirm the receipt of their applications via email to streamline the process, which typically takes 2-3 weeks. At Patches of Light, we are committed to alleviating the burdens that families face during incredibly difficult times, ensuring that no family navigates these challenges alone.
