Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families with children facing catastrophic health challenges and the resulting financial hardships in Forest City, IA. Our mission is to provide vital financial assistance, which includes help with utilities, housing costs, gas cards, and grocery cards to ease burdens during difficult times. To maintain confidentiality and ensure the integrity of our services, applications must be submitted through the child’s medical team, and we are unable to accept direct inquiries from families regarding applications. Processing typically takes 2-3 weeks, and we encourage a brief email confirmation upon submission to ensure your application is received, helping us assist you promptly.
