H.R. No. 1905 |
|
||
WHEREAS, Staff members of Radiology Associates have been | ||
honored by the American Cancer Society for their exemplary | ||
participation in the Corpus Christi Making Strides Against Breast | ||
Cancer walk; and | ||
WHEREAS, Each year, the American Cancer Society holds walks | ||
in nearly 300 communities across the nation; these events honor | ||
breast cancer survivors and raise awareness of how to reduce one's | ||
risk of developing the disease; the money collected enables the | ||
society to fund groundbreaking research and to provide 24-hour | ||
information and support, as well as a range of services for breast | ||
cancer patients; and | ||
WHEREAS, In 2014, a Radiology Associates team participated in | ||
the Corpus Christi Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk, | ||
raising more than $66,000 for the cause and earning distinction as a | ||
Pacesetter Team; Radiology Associates stands out not only as the | ||
sole group in Corpus Christi to meet the $25,000 threshold for | ||
achieving Pacesetter honors, but also as one of the top 20 | ||
Pacesetter Teams in the nation, ranking 14th on a list that includes | ||
teams from a number of larger corporations; and | ||
WHEREAS, A group of board-certified radiologists and some 200 | ||
employees, Radiology Associates offers a full range of outpatient | ||
imaging services and has been designated as a Breast Imaging Center | ||
of Excellence by the American College of Radiology; and | ||
WHEREAS, By raising money as well as public awareness, the | ||
members of the Radiology Associates team have made a notable | ||
contribution in the fight against cancer, and they are indeed | ||
deserving of recognition for their outstanding efforts; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby commend Radiology Associates for its commitment | ||
to combatting breast cancer and congratulate the organization on | ||
its stellar achievement in the 2014 Making Strides Against Breast | ||
Cancer walk; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Radiology Associates as an expression of high regard | ||
by the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
