The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant in Keaau, HI is dedicated to supporting individuals experiencing significant financial challenges stemming from chronic, terminal, or rare health conditions, including cancer and Parkinson's Disease. This compassionate grant program offers crucial assistance in two key areas: utility assistance and grocery assistance, ensuring that those in need can maintain essential services and access nutritious food during difficult times. While the grant provides support for either utilities or groceries, we also collaborate with other organizations to connect our recipients with additional resources and assistance, fostering a network of care and support.
