                                 ______

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 31, 2012

  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and congratulate 
the Family Pantry of Cape Cod and its dedicated staff and volunteers.
  The Family Pantry of Cape Cod has consistently provided such 
essentials as food and clothing to those in need for nearly 23 years. 
The organization serves an average of 900 families each month, making 
it the largest food pantry on Cape Cod, and has more than doubled the 
supply of food and services to those in need over the past five years. 
They do this not with a large budget, but with a very dedicated set of 
volunteers, embodying the spirit of community and reminding us all what 
it truly means to be a good neighbor.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in congratulating the Family Pantry of 
Cape Cod as it continues to fight against hunger in Massachusetts 
today.
