Lasting Impressions Supports the Community Through Various Initiatives
At Lasting Impressions, we believe in strong families and healthy communities. We support many local organizations in our community that work every day to improve the quality of life for many in the Capital Region.
The Quest for Grace Foundation, a local non-profit providing assistance to foster children in our community, is strongly supported by Lasting Impressions, and every year Dr. Mark Polsinello hosts a golf tournament to raise funds to help the organization.

The Quest for Grace Foundation
Since 2005, The Quest for Grace Foundation has provided clothing, and other items to foster children in the Capital Region. The Foundation operates solely on donations and good will. Every item is free and nothing is sold.
Founded on the premise that “every child is a gift,” we seek to make a positive difference in the lives of these children. We hope that our efforts help lighten the burden of neglect, indifference and abuse and let foster children know that someone cares for them. We currently serve the foster care communities in Saratoga, Schenectady, Warren, Columbia, Washington and Albany Counties and the Northeast Parent & Child Society.
