Patches of Light is dedicated to supporting families in North Yarmouth, ME, who are navigating the difficult challenges of catastrophic health issues and financial strain. Our mission is to ease the burden on families by providing essential financial assistance for utilities, housing, and transportation needs through gas and grocery cards. To ensure privacy and accuracy, applications must be submitted by hospital staff involved with the family, as we maintain strict confidentiality and only process requests that are verified by medical professionals. We understand the urgency of these needs and strive to respond to applications within 2-3 weeks. We encourage hospital staff to confirm application submissions via email to avoid technological oversights and expedite our assistance process. At Patches of Light, we are committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of families during their most challenging times.
