Mr. HILL of Arkansas. Madam Speaker, today, I recognize Christopher James, Ellie Roditis, and the University of Central Arkansas Exercise Science Program for their efforts in creating personal protective equipment for the healthcare workers of Arkansas.

Arkansas Air Force Reservist and full-time student Christopher James alongside his classmates from UCA have constructed and donated 114 medical face masks to healthcare workers at Arkansas Children's Hospital.

Christopher and his classmates are expected to complete at least 200 more masks which will be donated to patients and their families within the community.

This initiative reflects the ongoing support for our healthcare workers, and the ability our community has to come together during these times of crisis.

I congratulate Christopher James, Ellie Roditis, and the University of Central Arkansas Exercise Science Program for dedicating their time to ensuring our health care workers and the community are protected.
