Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Potlatch, ID, who are navigating the challenging combination of catastrophic health issues and financial hardship. Our mission is to provide vital financial assistance to families with children in need by helping to cover essential expenses such as utilities, housing, gas cards, and grocery cards. In order to maintain confidentiality and ensure the integrity of each request, all applications must be submitted by hospital staff working closely with the family. We encourage families to connect with their medical teams to facilitate this process, as we cannot accept direct inquiries from applicants regarding the status of their applications. We strive to process applications within 2-3 weeks, and a quick email confirming submission can greatly help us manage the application efficiently. At Patches of Light, we believe in empowering families during their time of crisis with care and compassion.
