  Mr. SOTO. Madam Speaker, Angus L. Bradshaw is a thriving nonprofit 
leader serving Central Florida. A native of Central Florida, Mr. 
Bradshaw graduated with a bachelor's degree in Business Administration 
at Florida Agriculture & Mechanical University (FAMU) with the help of 
several scholarships. He began his love for community-oriented care 
after surviving childhood cancer himself. This experience led Mr. 
Bradshaw to involve himself in his community through routine 
volunteerism and philanthropy at the young age of 14.
  Mr. Bradshaw has been supporting the mission of Miracle of Love, Inc. 
an HIV service organization in Orlando, FL. since 2002. He became its 
Executive Director in 2016 and is known for his constant smile and fun-
loving, compassionate demeanor. A revered leader in the organization 
and in the community, Mr. Bradshaw is equally known for his fierce 
focus on making the mission. He believes it is integral to do so with 
each employee and each client's self-respect, dignity, and morale 
intact. Mr. Bradshaw is aware that passion is not always enough, and he 
continually places himself in the position of a student; learning and 
applying those lessons to improve services and outcomes for those under 
his leadership. For this, he is valued by each of his team members and 
is seen as a community champion with upstanding repute. This has also 
given him expertise in many other areas; including social services, 
housing, and fundraising.
  Angus serves on multiple municipal committees in the Orlando 
Metropolitan area. These include Vice-Chair of the Membership Committee 
for Ryan White Part A--Orlando EMA Health Services Planning Council; 
Executive Committee Member for the Housing Opportunity for People with 
AIDS Advisory Committee; Equality Florida Board Member; an Executive
