[Congressional Record Volume 158, Number 61 (Thursday, April 26, 2012)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E676] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] HONORING THE EURO-AMERICAN BRANDS ______ HON. STEVEN R. ROTHMAN of new jersey in the house of representatives Thursday, April 26, 2012 Mr. ROTHMAN of New Jersey. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Euro-American Brands, in recognition of its designation as honoree at the Englewood Hospital's 2012 Gala. What began as a childhood passion for sweets today stands as a model for success, ingenuity and perseverance. Founded in 1990 by siblings Dite Van Clief and Tami Targovnik, in partnership with Peter Leiendecker, Paramus, New Jersey-based Euro-American Brands (EAB) is one the nation's premier importers of confections and specialty food products. EAB's love of sweets soared to new heights in 2010. Joining forces with its supplier of 20 years--Ritter Sport, a popular German confectionery brand--they introduced the Strawberry Creme Bar to support the fight against breast cancer: 100% of the profits earned by EAB from sales of the Ritter Sport Strawberry Creme Bar benefit The Leslie Simon Breast Care and Cytodiagnosis Center at Englewood Hospital. Their efforts yielded much-needed support for The Breast Center which provides lifesaving medical services to countless women in need. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to honor this remarkable company, and the great work they are doing in support of the Breast Care Center at Englewood Hospital. I join with the grateful guests of the Englewood Hospital Gala, and all of my constituents in North Jersey, in thanking the Euro-American Brands for its generous contribution to the good health of our community. ____________________
