  Mr. FOSTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Centennial 
Celebration of the Kiwanis Club of Joliet and Zonta International.
  Since its formation in 1920, The Kiwanis Club of Joliet has had a 
strong commitment to our community. They have supported cherished 
programs like Big Brothers/Big Sisters, the Center for Disability 
Services, the Guardian Angel Community Services, and many more. 
Currently, they sponsor several high school and middle school community 
clubs, inspiring our youth to give back as well.
  The Zonta Club of Joliet is a service-based organization committed to 
promoting women both locally and globally. Through fundraisers, they 
finance scholarships, grants, international projects, and charities. 
They are also the sponsors of the Joliet Central High School Fearless 
Females, a club dedicated to empowering young women.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing the 
Kiwanis Club of Joliet and Joliet International for 100 years of 
dedication to our community, and I wish them the best in the years to 
come.
