    RECOGNIZING SHAUN LIVINGSTON FOR HIS CONTRIBUTION TO THE PEORIA 
                               COMMUNITY

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. CHERI BUSTOS

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 21, 2019

  Mrs. BUSTOS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. Shaun 
Livingston for his willingness to invest in the Peoria community where 
he grew up. Mr. Livingston is a 31-year-old point guard for the 
National Basketball Association's Golden State Warriors.
  Mr Livingston recently made a one-million-dollar donation to his 
elementary school, Concordia Lutheran School, in Peoria, Illinois. The 
veteran point guard's generosity will be put towards expanding the 
school. Specifically, the expansion will consist of a performance stage 
for band and theater, a renovated gym, new offices and locker rooms and 
a storm shelter. As a former athlete, I understand the amount of hard 
work and commitment it takes to have a career as successful as Mr 
Livingston's. I am grateful for his passion to give back to the 
community and am confident his selfless actions will help provide young 
students with the opportunity to succeed. His leadership demonstrates 
to kids everywhere that they too can follow their ambitions and reach 
their goals.
  Dedicated leaders like Mr. Shaun Livingston make me especially proud 
to serve Illinois' 17th Congressional District. Madam Speaker, I would 
like to again formally thank Mr. Shaun Livingston on his investment in 
the Peoria community, and commend him on his kindness and generosity.
