A house RESOLUTION
To RECOGNIZE AND HONOR BEVERLY BREUER, DEDICATED PUBLIC SERVANT AND DIRECTOR OF THE AMERICORPS SENIORS PROGRAM OF SENIOR RESOURCES, UPON HER RETIREMENT AND TO WISH HER WELL AND GODSPEED AS SHE BEGINS A NEW CHAPTER IN HER Life.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives were pleased to learn that Beverly Breuer has served with distinction for twelve years at Senior Resources and will be retiring on March 22, 2024; and
Whereas, on December 1, 2016, Ms. Breuer assumed the role of Director of the AmeriCorps Seniors Programs. In this role, she greatly improved the programs to connect older adults in our community with public service through volunteerism; and
Whereas, under Ms. Breuer's leadership, the Foster Grandparent Program flourished, serving forty-one schools in our community with more than 400,000 hours of community service through AmeriCorps Senior Volunteers and serving thousands of children in low-income and underserved communities. Additionally, her expertise allowed the Senior Companion Program to thrive, serving three hundred twenty-eight homebound senior South Carolinians with 236,000 hours of community service by AmeriCorps Senior Volunteers; and
Whereas, in 2020, she capably led these programs through the COVID-19 Pandemic, successfully prioritizing the health and well-being of the senior citizens in her care and developing innovative solutions including telephone assistance, virtual meetups, and other initiatives to keep volunteers engaged in the community during periods of shutdown; and
Whereas, during her tenure AmeriCorps Volunteers awarded low-income senior citizens with $4,000,000 in economic assistance through community service volunteer stipends to increase the economic well-being of older South Carolinians; and
Whereas, grateful for her many years of distinguished service at Senior Resources, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in expressing profound appreciation to Beverly Breuer for her exemplary devotion to the older adults in our community and trust she will find much enjoyment in the more relaxed pace of the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor Beverly Breuer, dedicated public servant and director of the AmeriCorps Seniors program of Senior Resources, upon her retirement and wish her well and Godspeed as she begins a new chapter in her life.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Beverly Breuer.
