RECOGNIZING AUGOSTINA MALLOUS
(Mr. VAN DREW asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. VAN DREW. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize Augostina Mallous on
her many accomplishments.
Augostina is currently a freshman journalism major at Hofstra
University with a 4.0 grade average. Augostina is a member of the
competitive dance team and practices 50 hours a week. Augostina is the
former Miss New Jersey's Outstanding Teen and is the current Miss
Garden State.
During this pandemic, Augostina has made a significant impact on our
community. She not only organized a food drive for seniors to help
deliver food to those in need, Augostina was also making masks for Cape
Regional and Shore Medical Hospitals, along with several nursing homes.
Madam Speaker, Augostina exemplifies the virtues of compassion,
honor, integrity, dignity, and sincerity. Augostina's family, friends,
and community are proud of her.
Madam Speaker, I thank Augostina for her inspiration, and may God
bless her.
