Patches of Light, located in Nevada, IA, is dedicated to supporting families with children who are experiencing catastrophic health issues compounded by financial hardship. Our mission focuses on providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, gas cards, and grocery cards to help alleviate the burdens faced during these challenging times. By working exclusively through medical teams, we ensure the authenticity of requests while maintaining strict confidentiality. Applications, which take approximately 2-3 weeks for consideration, must be submitted by hospital staff, as families are unable to apply directly. We kindly encourage any hospital staff to confirm the submission of applications via email to avoid any potential issues with technology and security. Patches of Light is here to lend a helping hand when families need it most, reinforcing our commitment to compassionate and practical support for those in need.
