Sen. Kaminsky Helps Precious Harbor Kidz Care Secure $1,250 in Grant Funding

(Rockville Centre, New York) — Today, Senator Todd Kaminsky announced that he helped secure $1,250 in grant funding for the Valley Stream-based Precious Harbor Kidz Day Care to help defray the cost of COVID-related modifications to keep children and staff safe, while enhancing learning opportunities. 

The grant that Senator Kaminsky helped secure was administered by the New York State Office of Children and Family Services through funding from the federal CARES Act.

“Safe, quality child care for our kids is more important now than ever,” said Senator Todd Kaminsky. “I am confident that this vital funding will go a long way for children, teachers and parents alike, while ensuring they stay safe during this most difficult time.”

"Child care is essential to the development of tomorrow’s leaders — during the COVID pandemic, no less. We at Precious Harbor Kidz thank Senator Kaminsky for helping us get this vital grant funding during these most difficult times,” said Precious Harbor Kidz Director Renee Watson.

Precious Harbor Kidz Day Care will use the grant funding that Senator Kaminsky helped secure to purchase enhanced cleaning supplies and personal protective equipment to ensure the safety of the children in their care.
