                      Thursday, February 25, 2010

  Mr. BROWN of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
Katie Stagliano, one of four distinguished finalists of the 15th Annual 
Prudential Spirit of Community Awards.
  Katie, a fifth-grade student at Pinewood Preparatory School in 
Summerville, S.C., donated more than 1,000 pounds of fresh produce to 
local soup kitchens. Even more impressive, Katie produced the 
vegetables from five gardens that she tends. She has since recruited 
friends, family, members of the community and businesses to support her 
effort to feed the hungry. Katie is a remarkable young woman who has 
displayed an incredible sense of kindness and commitment to the hungry 
in South Carolina's First District.
  Thank you, Katie, for your exemplary volunteer service, and 
congratulations on receiving this distinguished honor.
