Selma Schimmel Vital Grant

The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant, located in Burbank, IL, is dedicated to supporting individuals navigating the financial challenges that come with chronic, terminal, or rare illnesses, including cancer, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s Disease. This compassionate grant program provides essential utility assistance and grocery support to those in need, ensuring that individuals facing these hardships can maintain their basic needs during difficult times. While the grant covers either utilities or groceries, we work closely with Vital Options International (VOI) and other partner organizations to connect applicants with additional resources and assistance, reaffirming our commitment to providing practical help and care to our community.
