Senator Mario R. Mattera, representing the 2nd Senate District, has provided $150,000 in state funding to the Huntington Community First Aid Squad (HCFAS). The funds will assist with acquiring carbon monoxide monitoring devices and renovations at their headquarters.
The funding was secured through a grant from New York State, although it had not been delivered until now. Senator Mattera's office collaborated with HCFAS President Fiona Witkowski to complete the grant process and ensure the funds were obtained.
“I was happy to work with President Witkowski to ensure it was delivered so HCFAS can continue to provide essential services to our residents. This funding will support these dedicated first responders in their mission to assist our community, and I thank every member of HCFAS for their service to the region,” stated Senator Mattera.
“We are very grateful to Senator Mattera for his assistance in securing this grant from New York State, which will help us purchase essential equipment and update our ambulance headquarters. Thank you for visiting us; we look forward to working with you again in the future,” stated President Witkowski.
