  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
the Wheat Ridge Police Department and the Wheat Ridge Business 
Association's Feed the Future Program for receiving the 2013 Wheat 
Ridge Mayor's Business & Community Partnership Award.
  This award incorporates overall achievements as well as contributions 
in volunteerism, leadership, and community investment, but must also 
include involvement with the mentoring, training, and partnering with 
the youth.
  The Feed the Future Program is a great collaborative initiative, 
working locally to transform lives toward a world where people no 
longer face under nutrition and hunger.
  I extend my deepest congratulations to the Wheat Ridge Police 
Department and Wheat Ridge Business Association's Feed the Future 
Program for this well deserved recognition by the City of Wheat Ridge. 
Thank you for your dedication to our community.
