Helping Long Islanders In Need

As our state and our nation continue to deal with the COVID-19 crisis, it is important that we all do what can to help those in our community who are in need.  Please use the links on this page to help bring some happiness to a local family.

Along with links to worthy organizations, my office has also included links to important information about making donations to charitable organizations and how to protect your family from possible fraud.

I hope this section is helpful and hope that everyone stays safe and healthy.

                                                                              Sincerely,

                                                                              Mario Mattara
