  Mrs. LURIA. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and recognize Kevin 
Turpin on receiving the 2019 Humanitarian Award for the Tidewater 
Chapter of the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities. This is an 
amazing accomplishment.
  This award recognizes Kevin's lifetime of service and commitment to 
the promotion of respect among people of diverse backgrounds. As 
Executive Director of the Life Enrichment Center, he serves the local 
community by providing tutors for children struggling in school or at 
home. He has gathered over 250 volunteers to serve the children, and 
the ministry continues to expand. The positive impact will be seen for 
many generations.
  Kevin's dedication to strengthening bonds among people of different 
racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds is truly inspiring. I am 
proud to honor and recognize his leadership and the role he plays in 
making our community a better place. The Tidewater Region has 
significantly benefited from his presence.
