Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 157 (Monday, October 5, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 157 (Monday, October 5, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E1018] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] RECOGNIZING SEVA COLLECTIVE ______ HON. J. LUIS CORREA of california in the house of representatives Monday, October 5, 2026 Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize SEVA Collective, a nonprofit based in the City of Santa Ana, for their diligent efforts in supporting our communities in need. Since its inception, SEVA Collective has served over 5.5 million meals, establishing methods to tackle food insecurity for communities across Orange County and Southern California. Through a strong commitment to selfless service, SEVA Collective regularly runs food drives and provides food for our neighbors in need, year-round, rain or shine. Beyond their efforts in tackling food insecurity, SEVA Collective also believes in inspiring the next generation of leaders. SEVA Collective also offers programming focused on youth development, having led 30+ graduates in developing the skills needed to become strong, competent, and committed leaders. Always striving to find ways to help others, SEVA Collective has also established a free medical clinic that operates during their regular food distributions. This clinic further supports our neighbors in need, providing basic access to medical tests and offering free medical consultations for all those who come. With the establishment of this clinic, SEVA Collective has been able to help our neighbors catch health issues that would have otherwise gone undetected. I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing SEVA Collective for their hard work and selfless service in helping those in need and inspiring action through committed leadership. We thank SEVA Collective for all that they have done to support the health and wellness of our neighbors back home. All of us here in Orange County wish them success as they continue to serve our communities for generations to come. ____________________
