Selma Schimmel Vital Grant | Vital Options Selma Schimmel Vital Grant “When a cancer or other diagnosis comes, the patient’s health is not the only thing that is affected. More times than not, the emotional, spiritual and financial health of the family is shaken to its core” Selma Schimmel Vital Options International (VOI) was founded in 1983 by Selma Schimmel after being diagnosed with Breast Cancer.
Selma was a visionary and pioneer in the way she developed programs to educate and support others around the world who received a cancer diagnosis. In 2014 we lost Selma to cancer, but Vital Options International lives on with her spirit to guide us. With a new Board of Directors whose passion for helping others is unparalleled, we are excited to share a new development in the way we help Patients and their families.
