                     Wednesday, September 10, 2008

  Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Ada Budrick 
Child Care and Learning Center, a pre-school in Boonton, New Jersey, an 
exceptional organization I am proud to represent! On August 28, 2008 
Ada Budrick celebrated 40 years of educating young children from low-
income families.
  Ada Budrick is a non-profit early childhood education center, 
accredited by the National Association for Education of Young Children.
  Ada Budrick provides an opportunity for children of low-income 
families to enter school on an equal footing with their peers. Its 
primary goals are to provide a secure, stimulating and loving 
atmosphere for self-discovery, and to develop feelings of self-worth 
and accomplishment by stressing cooperation and involvement through 
interactive learning.
  Ada Budrick Child Care and Learning Center was founded in 1968 in the 
Town of Boonton by Ada Budrick, a local welfare leader. The program 
primarily serves low-income and single parent families of multi-
cultural and multi-lingual backgrounds in Morris County, New Jersey. It 
has grown and changed over the years to meet the needs of this 
community.
  Madam Speaker, I urge you and my colleagues to join me in 
congratulating the dedicated and talented trustees and staff of Ada 
Budrick Child Care and Learning Center on the celebration of 40 years 
of providing critical educational services to the Boonton community.
