Located in Chalmette, LA, Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families with children who face catastrophic health issues and significant financial challenges. We provide vital assistance including help with utilities, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards to alleviate the burdens these families face. Our application process, which takes approximately 2-3 weeks for consideration, requires that applications be submitted by hospital staff working directly with the family, ensuring confidentiality and authenticity. To facilitate timely processing, it's beneficial for applicants to confirm the arrival of their submission via email, as we do not handle direct communication from families regarding application status. Together, we aim to bring hope and relief to those in need during their difficult times.
