RECOGNIZING HANNAH DAVIS
______
HON. HILLARY J. SCHOLTEN
of michigan
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, July 2, 2025
Ms. SCHOLTEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to ask my colleagues to join
me in congratulating Hannah Davis. Hannah is a member of Girl Scouts of
Michigan Shore to Shore, Girl Scout Juliette. She has exemplified
extraordinary leadership, innovative problem-solving, and a
demonstrated commitment to making a lasting, positive impact by earning
the most prestigious award in Girl Scouting, the Gold Award.
Gold Award Girl Scouts are recognized as trailblazers who are willing
to tackle the most pressing challenges facing their communities and the
world with measurable, sustainable, and far-reaching results. To earn
the Girl Scout Gold Award, high school-age Girl Scouts must identify
and investigate an issue they care about, devise a plan, and then lead
a team of experts and community members to implement a project that
produces lasting change. Over the course of 1 to 2 years, Gold Award
Girl Scouts demonstrate significant initiative, commitment, and
leadership, distinguishing them from their peers. Through their
resourcefulness and perseverance, they embody the Girl Scout Law to
truly make the world a better place.
Hannah's project, ``Community Sensory Room'', in partnership with
Faith Community Church of Coopersville, has greatly improved
accessibility resources for individuals with autism, Sensory Processing
Disorder (SPD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). Hannah took action by creating a
sensory room at her local church, allowing families and children space
to stimulate, engage, or relax senses, which will have a positive
impact on our community for years to come.
On behalf of Michigan's 3rd Congressional District, I congratulate
Hannah Davis for achieving the highest distinction in Girl Scouts, the
Gold Award. I thank Hannah for her leadership and for making such a
positive, enduring change in our community.
