The Selma Schimmel Vital Grant in Quincy, IL, is dedicated to supporting individuals grappling with the financial burdens that accompany a chronic, terminal, or rare medical condition, including cancer and Parkinson’s Disease. This program focuses on providing essential help through utility assistance and grocery assistance, ensuring that those affected can maintain a level of stability during challenging times. It is important to note that the grant covers either utility costs or grocery expenses but not both. Additionally, we collaborate with various organizations to connect recipients with other types of assistance as needed, striving to alleviate some of the financial stress faced by individuals in our community.
