BY: Senator MAYER

        COMMEMORATING the 100th Anniversary of The Woman's
        Club of Larchmont

  WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize that
the  quality  and  character  of life in the communities across New York
State are reflective of the concerned and  dedicated  efforts  of  those
organizations and individuals who would devote themselves to the welfare
of the community and its citizenry; and

  WHEREAS,  Attendant  to  such  concern  and  in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this  Legislative  Body  is  justly  proud  to
commemorate the 100th Anniversary of The Woman's Club of Larchmont; and

  WHEREAS,  The  Woman's  Club  of Larchmont was founded in 1925 by 12
women with a vision to influence the  community  positively  by  working
together; and

  WHEREAS,  The  Woman's  Club of Larchmont has three core objectives:
supporting civic and philanthropic  organizations,  promoting  education
and the arts, and discussing public interest topics; and

  WHEREAS,  The  impact  of  the  club spans across different areas of
life; it was instrumental  in  the  creation  of  the  Larchmont  Public
Library,  provides  numerous  scholarships  to  students,  and  helps to
provide basic support for children in need, all of which have  profound,
positive impacts in the club's community and beyond; and

  WHEREAS,  Philanthropy  is  a  core  value  of  The  Woman's Club of
Larchmont; their charitable efforts include donations of food, pet food,
hygiene products, diapers, and money to local organizations such as  the
Hope Food Pantry and World Central Kitchen; supporting the Stem Alliance
and the Interfaith Prison Partnership; hosting a Philanthropic Luncheon,
the  club's  main  fundraiser  annually  in  spring  which  holds silent
auctions with locally donated items; and

  WHEREAS, In addition to hosting speakers on a wide range of  topics,
The  Woman's  Club  of  Larchmont holds a Book and Author Luncheon every
December, highlighting Westchester authors; and

  WHEREAS, Now 100 years old, The Woman's Club of Larchmont  continues
to  draw dynamic women from all corners of the community; it is a source
of new  friendships,  fresh  perspectives,  and  opportunities  to  help
others; and

  WHEREAS,  It  is  the  sense  of  this  Legislative  Body  that when
organizations of such noble aims and accomplishments are brought to  our
attention,  they should be celebrated and recognized by all the citizens
of the great State of New York; now, therefore, be it

  RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its  deliberations  to
commemorate  the 100th Anniversary of The Woman's Club of Larchmont; and
be it further

  RESOLVED, That a copy of this  Resolution,  suitably  engrossed,  be
transmitted to The Woman's Club of Larchmont.
