Selma Schimmel Vital Grant

The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant, based in Carbondale, IL, is dedicated to supporting individuals experiencing severe financial difficulties due to diagnoses of chronic, terminal, or rare conditions, including cancer and neurological disorders like Parkinson’s and Huntington’s Disease. Our program focuses on offering crucial utility assistance and grocery assistance to ease some of the burdens faced during these challenging times. Please note that the grant covers either utilities or groceries to cater to immediate needs, and we collaborate with various partner organizations to connect recipients with additional support resources. We are here to provide compassionate help when it matters most.
