The SAMI Foundation
"When SAMI is on a job site our employees and consultants are working and living directly with and within the community. SAMI, in a sense, becomes a part of that community and we feel we have a responsibility to give back in any way possible."

-S. Bradley Peterson, President Strategic Asset Management

At this time SAMI does not accept unsolicited grant applications as new projects are discovered through Board member research.
As a global company, Strategic Asset Management Intl. (SAMI) recognizes the importance of giving back to the communities of the clients it serves as well as to the communities of its own employees.

The Mission of the SAMI Foundation is to offer compassionate assistance for underrepresented and underprivileged children and youth with severely limited options in the areas of education, food and water, nutrition, health care, safety and shelter. Foundation grants are made to organizations that work with children and youth at risk and disadvantaged due to such factors as poor health, illiteracy, or insufficient educational and cultural opportunities.

It is our Vision to provide children with their basic needs – which would otherwise be absent from their young lives – thus allowing them the opportunity to thrive and, themselves, become agents of change in their own communities.

Groups We Support
The following groups are the most recent recipients of SAMI Foundation charitable donations as the mission and goals of these organizations are in line with our own and we fully support and promote their efforts:
IMPACT Personal Safety
IMPACT is a non-profit organization within New Mexico dedicated to ending the cycle of violence by teaching awareness, personal safety, violence prevention and self-defense skills to adults and children. According to the Bureau of Criminal Justice's Uniform Crime Reports, in 2001 New Mexico had the 4th highest per capita incidence of sexual assault in the country and 9 out of 10 rape victims are women. These alarming statistics prompted the formation of IMPACT in an effort to provide quality, preventative self-defense programming to the public and other service providers on a sliding scale basis. IMPACT programs instill participants with increased self-confidence and assertiveness, both of which are necessary skills for personal success as well as personal safety.

Pathway Family Center
The Pathway Family Center provides long term solutions to help troubled teens overcome substance abuse and behavioral problems. Their program teaches teens to redirect their lives in a healthy fashion by providing a structured approach to individual treatment while incorporating the teen's family into the overall recovery process. The Pathways program removes the teens from the unproductive environment, forces them to address personal issues and then slowly helps them reintegrate into society in a productive capacity by teaching them how to deal with all of the related issues and emotions involved in doing so. http://www.pathwayfamilycenter.org/
Stafford School Parent Teacher Organization
The Stafford Elementary School PTO is currently in the process of raising funds to purchase and install a universally accessible, age appropriate playscape that is compliant with the Americans With Disabilities Act. The playscape will be a welcome, much-needed addition to the school since no playground equipment currently exists on the school property. There are currently about 500 students enrolled at Stafford school and of these, 24% are identified as special needs as the school houses the district-wide Autism Program for elementary students in Bristol, CT.
