  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize an 
outstanding constituent in my district, Teddy Tendler. Teddy is an 
eight-year-old student at Congregation Kol Emet in Yardley, 
Pennsylvania. In April, Teddy decided to incorporate her passion for 
technology towards supporting her community. With the support of her 
parents, Jared and Corey, Teddy launched a Facebook campaign as a 
service project for Hebrew School. Her goal was to donate laptops to 
Family Service Association of Bucks County, which operates an emergency 
homeless shelter. Teddy was able to provide six laptops, six sets of 
headphones, a printer, paper, and ink to Family Service Homeless 
Shelter residents in Levittown, Pennsylvania. Whether they are used for 
education or just playing games and being a kid like Teddy, these 
computers will make a large impact for both homeless kids and adults. 
In August, Teddy was awarded the ``6ABC Hometown Hero Award'' from 
Family Service Association to recognize her fundraising efforts. We are 
incredibly grateful for the positive impact Teddy has had on our 
community. I wish her continued success in her future endeavors.
