Mission Statement

In his will, Winfield Scott Stratton left a legacy to provide for poor persons who are without means of support and who are physically unable by reason of old age, youth sickness or other infirmity to earn a livelihood. The Myron Stratton Home carries out his wishes by providing housing, programs, services, and grants to improve the quality of life of those less fortunate.

INDEPENDENT LIVING

Through direct grants and collaborative programs, the Myron Stratton Foundation provides financial support to other community organizations that serve the populations Stratton identified in his will.
