Selma Schimmel Vital Grant

The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant, based in El Cajon, CA, is dedicated to supporting individuals enduring the financial burdens associated with chronic, terminal, or rare conditions like cancer, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s Disease. This compassionate program offers essential utility and grocery assistance, ensuring that those in difficult circumstances can find relief in their time of need. While the grant supports either utilities or groceries, we also collaborate with various local organizations to connect recipients with additional resources and aid. Our mission is to provide a lifeline and alleviate some of the immediate financial pressures faced by those diagnosed with serious health conditions in the community.
