                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, April 8, 2021

  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate the Cookies for Caregivers on winning the Special Merit 
Award from the Huntingdon County Chamber of Commerce. The award is 
given to an organization that demonstrates outstanding achievement in 
the community.
  Cookies for Caregivers is a national program that was established by 
Huntingdon residents in April 2020. The groups founders, Scott McKenzie 
and Jeremy Uhrich, began baking cookies for frontline workers during 
the COVID-19 pandemic. What started a local community service project 
has transformed into a national movement. With more than 100 bakers 
joining the group, Cookies for Caregivers has made more than 10,000 
cookies to share with essential workers.
  It is my privilege to recognize Scott and Jeremy for their leadership 
and ingenuity through the development of Cookies for Caregivers. This 
is a remarkable service to our community and beyond, and I wish them 
continued success in their efforts.
