Madam Speaker, last month, I had the honor of meeting with Jack and Jill of America's Eastern Region teen representatives. For the past 80 years, the Eastern Region of Jack and Jill of America has been impacting the lives of children by making them civically engaged, charitable, and selfless leaders. The development of this club allowed children to come together in a close, social, and cultural relationship with one another. This organization provides a supportive community for mothers, children, fathers, and teens to assist in the positive transformation of not only the communities but the country. The Eastern Region is the largest in the country with 56 chapters, and it continues to provide innovative programming in the new millennium. Because of the dedication of these individuals working with the region, the Eastern chapters have provided over 500,000 meals to families in need in the year 2014 to 2015. It is a job well done by the Eastern Region of Jack and Jill of America. We thank them for their support, their help, and their commitment to America. ____________________
