Gold Star & Make It Count Foundation Team Up for Veterans

0% Interest and $0 Down For 12 Months

Even though you might know us as a plumbing and heating company that services homes, we also strive to make a difference for our veterans. Earlier this year, a military veteran from Hauppauge, New York asked for help during the winter season. His home’s heating system wasn’t working right and as we know, New York winters can be a tough thing to get through. Luckily, with the incredible help of the Make It Count Foundation, our very own Joe Zito, Lucas Offner, Derlin Bonilla, and Marc Thompson, were able to install a brand-new furnace for the respected veteran, Mike Rosati. Joining the Gold Star team was, of course, the Make It Count Foundation’s President, Jon Reese.

Veteran Mike Rosati

Mike Rosati spent nine years in the Marine-Recon division and after serving multiple tours was wounded in action which forced him to return to his Hauppauge home. Matthew Thompson, president of Gold Star Service, and his team received a referral from the Veterans Association Hospital. And when he was notified that he could help Mike, he and his team members jumped at the opportunity, since it was a service that was more than meaningful to them.
“The folks at the VA hospital referred him to us, and said that the Rosati family is one of their all-time favorites,” states Thompson. “On all our Veterans renovations, we get the referral from the VA Hospital. This assures us that the Vets are fully vetted as to Military service and medical, personal, and family history.”
“I believe the men and women that have fought for our freedom is one of the most important things we can do. Without them, we would not have anything. Giving back to them is the least we can do,” states Thompson.

The Make It Count Foundation

Jon Reese and the Make It Count Foundation team also receives these referrals from the VA hospital. Since 2009, the Make It Count Foundation has been committed to serving veterans and active duty military members on Long Island. Their main goal is to provide access to safe, medically appropriate, and affordable housing renovation solutions to those who need it most.
