  Ms. PETTERSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Habitat for 
Humanity for receiving the Wheat Ridge Business Association's 2023 
Special Recognition Award.
  The Special Recognition Award is given to a person or organization in 
Wheat Ridge who exemplifies outstanding service, leadership, and 
participation in the community and aims to recognize them for their 
achievement. Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build 
homes, communities, and hope. Habitat works with low- and middle-income 
families to build affordable homes. This year, Habitat began 
construction on 8 units in the Fruitdale neighborhood, bringing in 8 
new families to Wheat Ridge.
  We are grateful to Habitat for Humanity for their continued 
contributions to the Wheat Ridge community.
