The money can help with travel and burial expenses or anything else the family needs. Because GoFundMe has many fees and a significant wait time to receive a check, we are taking direct donations that will be readily available to the family. 100% of your donations will be given to Sal and Toni.
The Amato family helped us through Matthew’s passing, we want to shower them with the same love they showed us! We are a 501c3 Non Profit organization which means you donations are tax exempt! Click on our website and click on “Amato Family” on the top menu bar to find a donation link and our Venmo info.”
