FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Derek M. Doyle June 26, 2018 [email protected] Washington, DC (301) 676-3882 U.S. Congress Recognizes 442 Youth with 2018 Congressional Award Gold Medal On June 21, 2018, Members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives honored 442 youth across 41 states at the 2018 Congressional Award Gold Medal Ceremony. Recipients of The Congressional Award Gold Medal have earned the highest honor Congress bestows upon a youth civilian. For a minimum of two years, each Gold Medalist logged hundreds of hours across four program areas: Voluntary Public Service, Personal Development, Physical Fitness, and Expedition/Exploration. The 2018 Gold Medal class was the largest in the program’s 39 year history, representing an unprecedented year of servant leadership. This year’s class contributed 371,280 service hours to communities near and far, an average of 840 hours per medalist. This special recognition event took place in the historic Kennedy Caucus Room of the Russell Senate Office Building, located on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. Three award ceremonies were held to accommodate family members and guests. ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl, NBC News Washington Correspondent Blayne Alexander, and Entercom’s 94.7 FRESH FM and NBC4 personality Tommy McFly each served as Masters of Ceremonies. The Presentation of Colors and National Anthem were given by the United States Capitol Police Ceremonial Unit. Invocations were provided by Reverend Patrick Conroy, Chaplain of the United States House of Representatives, and Dr. MarTeze Hammonds, Congressional Award Advisor and program volunteer. Over 50 Members of Congress attended the ceremony to present their constituents with the Gold Medal. -

The seals on the cover represent the two sides of The Congressional Award Medal. The Capitol Dome is surrounded by 50 stars, representing the states of the Union, and is bordered by the words, “Congressional Award.” Bordering the eagle are the words that best define the qualities found in those who have earned this honor, “Initiative – Service – Achievement” The Congressional Award Public Law 96-114, The Congressional Award Act 2019 Gold Medal Ceremony The Congress of the United States United States Capitol Washington, D.C. It is my honor and privilege to applaud the achievements of the recipients of the 2019 Congressional Award Gold Medal. These outstanding 538 young Americans have challenged themselves and made lasting contributions to local communities across this great nation. This is our largest class of Gold Medalists to date! The Gold Medal Ceremony is the culmination of a long journey for our awardees. For each participant the journey was unique, but one that likely included many highs and lows. The Congressional Award program was designed to instill a wide range of life skills and attributes that are necessary to navigate and overcome obstacles on the path to success - both in the classroom and beyond. And now that each young person has met these challenges and attained their goals, we hope they will continue to amaze and inspire us by pursuing their passions, utilizing their talents, and demonstrating an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we would like to extend our great appreciation to our partner organizations and sponsors for their continued support. -
