The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant in Fairfield, CT, is dedicated to providing practical support for individuals grappling with the financial strains of chronic, terminal, or rare illnesses, including cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and Huntington’s disease. This essential grant program offers critical utility assistance and grocery assistance to those in need, ensuring that financial hardships do not add to their burdens during challenging times. While the grant specifically covers either utilities or groceries, we also collaborate with various partner organizations to connect recipients with additional forms of assistance. Our mission is to alleviate the pressures that come with serious health challenges and help individuals focus on what truly matters: their health and well-being.
