                        Thursday, April 24, 2025

  Mr. BILIRAKIS. I rise today to recognize the outstanding 
contributions that Alyssa Reas has made through her volunteerism at 
Gulf Highlands Elementary School. Alyssa stepped onto the campus with 
big plans to support students. She has seen the value that peer mentors 
have made in student lives and is determined to help cultivate success 
on the campus. She has been working diligently to match big brothers 
and big sisters with students on campus, with 10 success stories to 
date. It is exciting for students to have someone from their community 
encouraging them in their educational journey.
  It is clear Alyssa Reas has made a profoundly positive impact on our 
community, and I am grateful for her service. May we all strive to 
serve our communities with the same dedication and humility.
