                        SOUTH DAKOTA UNITED WAY

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I recognize the South Dakota 
United Way. This is the 125th anniversary of the United Way and I would 
like to specifically acknowledge the South Dakota chapters on this 
special day. The local United Way has been active in South Dakota since 
1929 and has made outstanding contributions to the communities they 
serve.
  There are 11 United Way locations in South Dakota providing services 
such as educational opportunities, lower income community aid, and 
health awareness programs. The United Way partners with many local 
businesses, furthering their community impact.
  I would like to offer my congratulations on this monumental day to 
this program and to all the great men and women whose generosity and 
service make the United Way a success.
