Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Caldwell, ID, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens faced by these families by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing costs, and transportation needs through gas cards, as well as grocery cards to help put food on the table. Because of our commitment to confidentiality and the well-being of the families we serve, applications must be submitted by hospital staff who are involved in the child's care. While families themselves cannot apply directly, we ensure a streamlined process, typically reviewing applications within 2-3 weeks. To facilitate timely processing, we encourage a confirmation email to follow each request, as this helps us track submissions that may encounter technological challenges. At Patches of Light, we believe in the power of community support and strive to bring light to families during their most difficult times.
