Selma Schimmel Vital Grant

The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant in Kankakee, IL, is dedicated to supporting individuals facing significant financial hardship due to the diagnosis of chronic, terminal, or rare diseases, including cancer and Parkinson's. This compassionate program provides essential utility assistance and grocery assistance to help alleviate the financial burden during challenging times. It is important to note that the grant covers either utilities or groceries, ensuring clear support where it's most needed. Additionally, in collaboration with Vital Options International (VOI), we connect individuals with partner organizations that may offer further assistance tailored to their specific needs.
