"Patriotism is voluntary; It is a feeling of loyalty and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief. Patriots show their patriotism through their actions."

A big thank you to our Sponsors and Players that participated in our 12th Annual Goodfellas Golf outing. Because of you and your generosity we've been able to continue our efforts to support our troops and their families. Thanks to you here are some of the things we've been able to accomplish lately: We think you'd like to know that the Patriots of Long Island has an extremely low overhead which for the most part covered by our volunteer members, so you can rest assured that every dollar you donate is put to good use.
Presenting $5,000 in phone cards for the Troops to Doreen Kenny of the Jacob’s Light Foundation.
A phone card was included in every care package that the Jacobs Light Foundation sent to our troops serving oversees during the months of December through March.

“ Thank you for supporting Soldiers-your efforts to provide calling cards for deployed service members here in Iraq is much appreciated. Keeping in touch with friends and family is one of the biggest morale boosters for all of us. Our unit is located at Camp Cropper, on the Victory Base Complex where MWRs with SPAWAR are easily accessible. Keep up the good work! God Bless-“ Amy Trevino, MAJ, US Army
“Merry Christmas, My name is Senior Airman Davielle Rodgers United States Air Force and I just wanted to take a few minutes and thank you for the packages with the calling card that you sent over here. I was so pleased to have something for the holiday season and I was able to send some of the things to soldiers who haven’t received anything from home. I just want to tell you that it is organizations such as yourself that keep us going during the holidays. You have no idea what an amazing feeling it is when you know people from back home are behind us. Keep up the wonderful work and I wanted to say again thank you for the Support!” SrA Davielle Rodgers 332 EFSS/NAF Balad, Iraq
“Dear Patriots of Long Island, Thank you for the care package! I have not tried the SPAWAR calling card but will get you feed back on it once I do. Please thank everyone in your organization on my behalf. I truly appreciate all the time that was taken to prepare and send the package to me in Iraq” CPT Christopher Pizzolo 402nd AFSB Brigade Judge Advocate Joint Base Balad, Iraq
“I am writing to you on behalf of the American Soldiers and Civilians at FOB Endeavor, IRAQ. We received your care package from Patriots of Long Island. THANKYOU so much from the bottom of our hearts. It’s an amazing feeling to know that America still supports our effort in the change we are trying to provide. Thank-you”
"DOC" Travis LaChance FOB Endeavor Medic
“Patriots of Long Island, I just wanted to thank you for everything you're doing at home for the troops. I really appreciate the calling card, that is the perfect thing to send to us over here. Once again I just wanted to send you a quick email to say thank you for your generosity” William DeVito “Thanks again for your kindness and God Bless you” SGT Eddie Zaluski
