Charlotte. As an active participant in local events, she understands 
the specific needs of her community.
  As the first woman to ever be elected, Mrs. Calvillo has served in 
her city as Alderwoman since 1999. She spends much of her time working 
in school functions and focusing on local community projects. Having 
graduated from local schools, she works passionately to ensure that 
quality education is kept a priority.
  Also working to keep our communities beautiful, Hilda Calvillo has 
recently been instrumental in the recent building of a Charlotte city 
park.
  Hilda Calvillo lives in Charlotte with her husband. She has three 
children and two grandchildren. Mrs. Calvillo and her family enjoy 
sports and spending time with the rest of the community.
  Mr. Speaker, I am deeply proud to have this opportunity to recognize 
Alderwoman Hilda Calvillo of Charlotte for her dedicated public 
service.
