| WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
| recognize the Young Men's Business League of Austin on the | ||
| occasion of its 100th anniversary; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Young Men's Business League was founded in | ||
| 1913 and is one of the oldest and most respected social service | ||
| organizations in Austin; it provides its members a platform to | ||
| cultivate lifelong personal and professional relationships | ||
| through a variety of service opportunities; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The league hosts such activities and programs as | ||
| the Austin Under 40 Awards, the Schlotzsky's 5K and 10K Bun Runs, | ||
| and its Annual Golf Classic; its Leadership Development Series | ||
| features guest speakers and educational workshops that help its | ||
| members grow as professionals; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Since 1928, the league has sponsored the Austin | ||
| Sunshine Camps in an effort to break the cycle of poverty among | ||
| high-potential, low-income young people in Central Texas; in | ||
| addition to its summer camps, this exceptional program offers the | ||
| Sunrise Leadership Program, which helps reduce the high school | ||
| dropout rate, and the Sunrise Challenge Program, which assists | ||
| middle school students in preparing for the rigors of high | ||
| school; and | ||
| WHEREAS, For 100 years, the Young Men's Business League has | ||
| made a profound difference in the lives of its members and of | ||
| young people across the area, and it is truly deserving of | ||
| recognition as it achieves this milestone in its history; now, | ||
| therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd | ||
| Legislature, hereby commend the Young Men's Business League of | ||
| Austin on its legacy of community service and extend to its | ||
| members best wishes for a memorable 100th anniversary | ||
| celebration; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
| the league as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. | ||
