Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Marie Beeler for receiving the Arvada Chamber of Commerce's Woman of the Year Award.
This award is given to a member of the community who has displayed outstanding leadership and a passion for helping those around them. Marie has been described as a local hero. someone who sees the good in people, and who is able to recognize the issues facing her community and tackle them head on.
Through her work with HOPE (Help Our People Eat), Arvada High School, Severe Weather Network, migrant ministry, Hope House and a variety of other causes and organizations, she has helped feed thousands of Coloradans in need. She personally hauls loads of canned goods, backpacks full of school supplies and other heavy items in and out of her truck. Her passion comes from a deep belief that a child is only able to learn when he/she fed and alert. Enabling children to learn will ensure they get an education which will lead to a good-paying job and success beyond the classroom. Marie has continuously served as the voice and a champion for those who need it most--the disenfranchised, the poor, or the minority--across Arvada.
Congratulations to Marie Beeler for receiving the Woman of the Year Award. Her hard work, compassion and dedication to our community is greatly appreciated.
