A house RESOLUTION

TO HONOR AND RECOGNIZE GREGORY "GG" JACKSON II FOR HIS OUTSTANDING PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL ACHIEVEMENTS AND HIS PHILANTHROPIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE KERSHAW COUNTY COMMUNITY.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to honor Gregory "GG" Jackson II of Camden for his philanthropic efforts within the Kershaw County community and his outstanding achievements in the National Basketball Association (NBA); and

Whereas, a role model and student athlete, GG Jackson attended school in Kershaw County until his graduation from Camden Middle School. He is a notable alumnus of the Jackson Teen Center in Camden and Ridge View High School in Columbia. His exceptional talent and dedication to basketball led to his enrollment at the University of South Carolina. As a freshman on the basketball team at the University of South Carolina, he completed eighteen credit hours and made the Dean's List. After his freshman year, he was drafted to play in the NBA by the Memphis Grizzlies; and

Whereas, GG Jackson has consistently demonstrated a commitment to leveraging his success to benefit his community, exemplified by his introduction of the "Groom and Grind Day" event at the Jackson Teen Center. This initiative is aimed at ensuring that every child in Kershaw County is prepared for a successful first day of school and raises awareness about the critical issue of bullying; and

Whereas, the "Groom and Grind Day" event reflects Mr. Jackson's dedication to fostering a supportive and nurturing environment for the youth of Kershaw County by providing essential resources, mentorship, and advocacy against bullying, thereby contributing to the overall well-being and development of children in the community; and

Whereas, his ongoing efforts to give back to his community not only highlight his personal integrity and leadership, but also serve as inspiration to others by demonstrating the positive impact that professional athletes can have on their communities through philanthropy and civic engagement; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives express their sincere gratitude to GG Jackson for his unwavering support and dedication to the youth of Kershaw County, particularly through the impactful "Groom and Grind Day" initiative. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor and recognize Gregory "GG" Jackson II for his outstanding professional basketball achievements and his philanthropic contributions to the Kershaw County community.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Gregory "GG" Jackson II.
