In Normal, IL, Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families with children experiencing severe health challenges and financial difficulties. We understand the immense burden these families face, and our mission is to provide meaningful financial assistance through utility and housing payments, as well as gas and grocery cards. Our application process, which typically takes 2-3 weeks, is facilitated exclusively through hospital staff working directly with families, ensuring confidentiality and authenticity in every request. To help us serve you better, we encourage hospital representatives to send a confirmation email upon submitting an application, as this improves our response time and helps prevent any missed requests. Patches of Light stands ready to light the way during difficult times, offering compassion and practical support when it's needed most.
