Selma Schimmel Vital Grant

The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant in Saint Marys, KS is dedicated to supporting individuals confronting significant financial challenges due to chronic, terminal, or rare medical conditions such as cancer, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s Disease. Our mission is to alleviate some of the stress that comes with these diagnoses by providing essential utility assistance and grocery assistance to those in need. We recognize the urgency of these services and aim to provide practical help during difficult times. While the grant covers either utilities or groceries, our partnership with Vital Options International (VOI) connects recipients to additional resources for further assistance, ensuring that we can meet the immediate needs of our community with compassion and care.
