Mineola - Senator Elaine Phillips (R-Manhasset) today announced she has secured nearly $50,000 in state funding for the Littig House Community Center located in Port Washington.  The nonprofit agency provides programs and services to enhance the quality of life for children and families in the community.  The announcement was made during Senator Phillip’s recent tour of the Littig House.
