TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR SANDRA AULL ANDERSON, OWNER AND BROKER-IN-CHARGE OF A-Z REALTY IN GREENWOOD, AND TO CONGRATULATE HER FOR RECEIVING THE 2011 MINORITY SMALL BUSINESS CHAMPION AWARD.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that Sandra Aull Anderson will receive the Small Business Administration Minority Small Business Champion Award for South Carolina on May 4, 2011; and
Whereas, born in Greenwood, Sandra Anderson graduated from Greenwood High School and attended Benedict College before receiving a bachelor's degree in sociology at Lander College in 1976; and
Whereas, in 1974, she married her high-school sweetheart, and, after she earned her college degree and he completed his military service, the Andersons combined Sandra's talent for floral designing with their desire to have their own business and opened their own flower shop; and
Whereas, seven years later, when the building that housed Sandra's business was sold, she went to work as a postal carrier and remained there successfully for sixteen years until she felt a strong desire to again have her own business; and
Whereas, she attended Piedmont Technical College at night to take the real estate course to become a licensed realtor. After obtaining her license and having a very successful two years as a part time agent, Sandra left the post office and opened her own company, A-Z Realty;
Whereas, in spite of her plans to be her company's only agent, her business grew so rapidly that, with the help of the Greenwood office of the Small Business Administration, she designed a business plan envisioning five agents that has now grown to eight; and
Whereas, the United States Small Business Administration, created in 1953 to aid, counsel, assist, and protect small businesses and to preserve free, competitive enterprise, annually presents the Minority Small Business Champion award in each state to individuals who have supported and assisted small minority-owned business through outstanding efforts; and
Whereas, Sandra's selection as the South Carolina Minority Small Business Champion is testimony to her selfless dedication and tireless efforts to promote minority entrepreneurship. Her strong advocacy has encouraged the development and ongoing efforts of many minority-owned businesses, especially those related to the housing industry, such as building contractors, electricians, home inspectors, plumbers, insurance agents, pest-control companies, and attorneys; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives celebrate the success and recognition of Sandra Aull Anderson and wish her continued fulfillment as one of our state's leading small-business entrepreneurs. Now, therefore,
