Patches of Light, located in Clinton, IA, is dedicated to supporting families with children who are facing catastrophic health challenges and financial struggles. We provide essential financial assistance aimed at alleviating some of the burdens these families endure, including help with utility bills, housing costs, gas cards for transportation, and grocery cards for everyday needs. To maintain confidentiality and integrity, applications must be submitted by hospital staff working with the family, ensuring that each situation is handled with the utmost care and respect. The application review process typically takes 2-3 weeks, and we encourage hospital personnel to confirm receipt of their submissions via email to streamline the process. At Patches of Light, we understand the urgency of these circumstances, and our mission is to bring relief where it is most needed, ensuring that every child can access the support required during challenging times.
