5 Easy Ways to Give:

Giving doesn't have to be complicated. Pick the one that works for you.

1. Give online or by check. New this year: even if you don't itemize, you can deduct up to $1,000 in cash gifts ($2,000 if you're married filing jointly).

2. Give from your donor-advised fund. If you have a fund at Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard or elsewhere, just log in and recommend a grant to the Strata Foundation. Our EIN is 84-3745294.

3. Give stock that has gone up. Donate shares you've owned for more than a year instead of cash. You skip the capital gains tax, and if you itemize, you can deduct the full value.

4. Give from your IRA if you're 70½ or older. Send a gift straight from your IRA to us. It's called a Qualified Charitable Distribution. It isn't counted as income, and it can count toward your required minimum distribution.

5. Ask your employer to match. Many companies match what their employees give. A quick note to HR can double your gift.

Everyone has felt it at the pump this year. With everything going on in the world, it costs more to fill up the car, and heating oil is no different. Much of Long Island still heats with oil, and when a tank runs empty in January, a family can't wait.

That's why we're launching Winter Ready, so when a veteran family calls because the heat is out, we can act right away.

When the call comes, we stand ready. Donate today:

The Strata Foundation recently had the honor of visiting the Long Island State Veterans Home, located on the beautiful Stony Brook University campus.

Our founder and CEO, Joe Campolo, a veteran himself, was deeply impressed by the facility and the exceptional care it provides. We were given a wonderful tour by Executive Director Fred Sganga, whose pride in the home was evident at every turn, and rightfully so. The breadth of services offered to veterans and their families is truly remarkable.

After the tour, we joined the veterans for a lively music event filled with singing and plenty of special requests.

Thank you to the staff and residents of the Long Island State Veterans Home for your warm welcome, and thank you to our veterans for your service.

Strata Foundation is thrilled to share the Guide Dog Foundation for the Blind and America's VetDogs' exciting news. Today, they celebrated the groundbreaking of their new Puppy Development & Visitor Center at their National Headquarters in Smithtown, New York.

This state-of-the-art facility will strengthen every assistance dog's journey from day one and expand the organizations' capacity to serve veterans on Long Island and beyond.

Strata Foundation Founder Joe Campolo spoke at the ceremony in his role as Board Treasurer, emphasizing the importance of keeping this facility in Smithtown. As he proudly stated, "On Long Island, great things are getting done!"

A special highlight of the day: Executive Director Julie Alberti had the honor of speaking with Gretchen Evans, veteran and winner of the Pat Tillman Award for Service. Other special guests in attendance were Mr. Met, Sparky the Islanders mascot and many incredible service dogs.

We are proud to support this effort, and we invite you to join us!

And to Guide Dog Foundation President and CEO John Miller and staff, we applaud all that you do!

On September 11, we remember the lives lost and the families, first responders, and communities forever changed by that day.

We honor the courage and sacrifice of those who ran toward danger to help others, and we remember the strength and unity that followed.

Today, and always, we remember.

Executive Director Julie Alberti and Director of Marketing Renna Guadalupe recently toured the America's VetDogs facility in Smithtown with our guests, Stephanie and John Marchisotta.

The tour began with an overview of the organization’s long history and mission, followed by a behind-the-scenes look at the training facility and kennels. We were also lucky enough to meet Sully, President George W. Bush’s retired service dog.

It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the incredible work America’s VetDogs does to support veterans and their families.

We recently met a Navy veteran who had nowhere else to turn for assistance. We connected her with valuable resources to help maintain her home and provided laptops for her two elementary school children to support their studies.

For these students, access to the right tools can make all the difference—not just in the classroom today, but in helping them build a brighter future tomorrow.

Meet a Navy veteran and mother who came to us when she had nowhere else to turn. During the cold winter months, she was struggling to keep the heat on for her family while balancing the everyday challenges of raising two young children. We connected her with resources that provided stability and much-needed breathing room during a difficult time.

Every family has a story. The Strata Foundation is committed to supporting Long Island veterans and their families providing help when they need them most.
