  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Marwan Altaweel for receiving the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service 
Ambassadors for Youth award.
   Marwan Altaweel is an 8th grader at Drake Middle School and received 
this award because his determination and hard work have allowed him to 
overcome adversities.
   The dedication demonstrated by Marwan Altaweel is exemplary of the 
type of achievement that can be attained with hard work and 
perseverance. It is essential students at all levels strive to make the 
most of their education and develop a work ethic which will guide them 
for the rest of their lives.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Marwan Altaweel for winning 
the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I have no 
doubt he will exhibit the same dedication and character in all of his 
future accomplishments.
