Patches of Light in Lihue, HI, is dedicated to supporting families with children facing severe health challenges and financial difficulties. Our mission centers on providing essential financial assistance to help ease the burden of everyday expenses, including utility bills and housing costs, along with offering gas and grocery cards to help families navigate their tough times. To ensure a smooth and confidential assistance process, applications must be submitted by hospital staff involved in the care of the child, and cannot be made by families directly. We prioritize the well-being of our families and work closely with medical teams to validate each situation while respecting privacy. We encourage confirming application submissions via email to help us maintain efficient communication and expedite assistance. Together, we strive to bring light and support to families during their most challenging moments.
