                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 13, 1999

  Mr. GREENWOOD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to an 
outstanding organization in our country called Students In Free 
Enterprise.
  Students In Free Enterprise (SIFE), is a nonprofit organization 
located on over 600 college campuses across the United States. SIFE has 
continually encouraged the free enterprise system through educational 
programs since its inception more than 20 years ago. Students in the 
organization dedicate their time and resources to helping others. 
SIFE's mission is to provide college students the best opportunity to 
develop leadership, teamwork, and communications skills through 
learning, practicing and teaching the principles of free enterprise. 
SIFE is not only involved with the encouragement of free enterprise, 
but has also worked closely with international charitable 
organizations. Students involved in this organization gain valuable 
leadership, communication, and business skills by teaching others, 
especially at-risk youth.
  The Students In Free Enterprise organization is a valuable asset to 
the citizens of our country. In honor of their many charitable and 
civil contributions, I join my colleagues in the House of 
Representatives in recognizing May 18, 1999 as the third annual 
National Students In Free Enterprise Day
  I especially congratulate the Bucks County Community College SIFE 
chapter as they continue their mission of helping people achieve their 
dreams through free enterprise education.
