Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families with children dealing with catastrophic health challenges and significant financial strain in Oldtown, ID. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burdens these families face by providing essential financial assistance, including help with utilities, housing support, gas cards, and grocery cards. We strive to ensure a smooth application process, which typically takes 2-3 weeks, through a collaborative approach with the child’s medical team to maintain confidentiality. To initiate an application, families must work through hospital staff; unfortunately, direct inquiries from families regarding their applications cannot be accommodated. We encourage applicants to confirm receipt of their applications with a follow-up email, helping us streamline our processes and provide timely assistance. At Patches of Light, we are here to illuminate the path for families in need, ensuring they receive the support they require during difficult times.
