The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant, located in Soda Springs, ID, is dedicated to supporting individuals facing significant financial challenges due to chronic, terminal, or rare illnesses, including cancer and Parkinson’s disease. This compassionate program provides essential utility and grocery assistance to alleviate some of the burdens experienced during these challenging times, allowing recipients to focus on their health and well-being. While the grant is designed to cover either utility costs or grocery expenses, Vital Options International (VOI) collaborates with other local organizations to connect applicants with additional resources and support tailored to their needs.
