Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Abingdon, MD, who have children facing catastrophic health challenges and financial difficulties. Our mission is to alleviate some of the stresses associated with these trying times by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, gas, and groceries. By collaborating closely with the child’s medical team, we ensure that all applications are treated with the utmost confidentiality and care. We kindly ask that applications be submitted through hospital staff, which allows us to maintain a focused and respectful processing system. As we are unable to accept direct phone calls or emails from families regarding their applications, we recommend confirming submission via email, which greatly aids in ensuring timely assistance. Together, we aim to provide a beacon of hope during challenging times.
