The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant, based in Bloomfield, CT, provides critical support to individuals grappling with financial challenges stemming from chronic, terminal, or rare illnesses, including cancer, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s Disease. This compassionate program offers essential utility assistance and grocery assistance, ensuring that those in need can maintain stability during difficult times. While the grant covers either utilities or groceries, we strive to collaborate with other organizations to facilitate additional resources, creating a network of support for our community members facing significant health-related hurdles.
