A house RESOLUTION

 

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR LOGAN WELLS, FOUNDER OF FRESH FRIENDS, AND TO COMMEND HER AND THIS ORGANIZATION FOR THEIR SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE.

 

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to acknowledge the impact that Fresh Friends is making on communities throughout the Midlands; and

 

Whereas, as a student at Heathwood Hall, Logan Wells started Fresh Friends as a school club to encourage volunteerism, promote inclusivity, and foster friendship; and

 

Whereas, Fresh Friends has maintained these goals and now has expanded to be a South Carolina nonprofit and registered 501(c)3 organization that is open to all high schoolers in the State; and

 

Whereas, by harnessing the connective powers of service and putting an emphasis on inclusivity, Fresh Friends acts to work against modern forces that threaten to divide younger generations; and

 

Whereas, the organization partners with local, statewide, and national organizations and nonprofits to connect teen volunteers with service opportunities that impact their local communities; and

 

Whereas, in the Midlands, Fresh Friends has partnered with the Downtown Church of Columbia, the Salvation Army, and local school districts; and

 

Whereas, with the goal of adding more high schools to the existing network of schools with chapters of Fresh Friends, Ms. Logan hopes to enhance the organization's ability to connect a greater number of high schoolers across the State through community service; and

 

Whereas, grateful for her dedication to serving her community and beyond, the House of Representatives appreciates the power for good that an organization like Fresh Friends can have on communities in South Carolina, and the members wish Ms. Logan continued success in 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 Logan Wells, founder of Fresh Friends, and commend her and this organization for their significant impact on the communities they serve.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Logan Wells.
