Whereas, the South Carolina District of Civitan International was formed on May 26, 1947; and

Whereas, the fifty thousand men, women, and teenagers in one thousand six hundred Civitan clubs worldwide work together to make their communities better places in which to live and work; and

Whereas, Civitan stresses the principles of good citizenship and challenges every citizen to think of citizenship as both a privilege and a responsibility; and

Whereas, Civitan is recognized for its support of adult and youth leadership development programs, community enhancement projects, scholarship grants, and public education programs; and

Whereas, Civitan has a long history of financial support and volunteer help for the physically handicapped and mentally retarded; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, would like to publicly recognize and congratulate this outstanding organization for all that it has done to better the lives of those in need. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly hereby

recognize Civitan International and the many Civitan clubs in South Carolina and throughout the United States for their contributions to others and to designate the week of April 12-18, 1992, as "Civitan Awareness Week".
