  Mr. OLSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to salute the Katy Boutique 
YaYa Club for their first annual ``Runway for Heroes'' fashion show and 
the mission behind it.
  As the holiday season approaches, many families with military parents 
deployed far from home will not be able to celebrate with them. This is 
hard on everyone in the family, especially the children. That's why 
this Veterans Day, the YaYa Club Boutique put on a fashion show with 
volunteer models to raise money to buy toys for the children of our 
military families. In their efforts, they raised over $8,000. 
Additionally, YaYa Club will be delivering the gifts in person to the 
children.
  I was incredibly heartwarming to see YaYa Club doing such a great 
service for the TX-22 community. I thank them for helping spread more 
love this holiday season across Katy. On behalf of the Twenty-Second 
Congressional District of Texas, their actions embody the spirit of 
giving and the spirit of Texas.
