Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in Star, ID, who are navigating the challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to alleviate some of the burden by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, gas, and groceries. We work closely with the child’s medical team to ensure the confidentiality and authenticity of each request, understanding the delicate nature of these circumstances. Applications require submission by hospital staff and take approximately 2-3 weeks for consideration. To enhance efficiency, we encourage hospital staff to confirm receipt of applications via email, ensuring we can process requests in a timely manner and provide the support families desperately need during difficult times.
