                 RECOGNIZING INDIANA COUNTY UNITED WAY

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
recognize the work of the Indiana County United Way in raising more 
than $35,000 as a part of their Turkeython fundraiser.
  The United Way of Indiana County recently partnered with radio host 
Todd Marino of ``Indiana in the Morning'' to create a telethon to raise 
funds to feed children, families, and veterans on Thanksgiving.
  In addition, 78 volunteers from United Way partner organizations set 
up donation drop areas around Indiana County to collect donations from 
generous residents.
  Each donation helped to ensure those facing hunger had a turkey to 
eat on Thanksgiving and could still enjoy the holiday.
  I thank the volunteers of the Indiana County United Way for their 
work in helping every child to enjoy Thanksgiving with their families.
  The volunteers of the United Way devoted their time and energy to 
giving back to their community and helping to alleviate hunger during 
this holiday season.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking the Indiana 
County United Way and their partners for doing their part to spread 
generosity and goodwill during this time of the year.
