HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, State employees raised more than $2.1 million in the
2008 Capital Area State Employee Charitable Campaign; and
WHEREAS, Despite these challenging economic times, some
8,000 state and higher education employees throughout Bastrop,
Bell, Blanco, Burnet, Caldwell, Fayette, Hays, Lampasas, Lee,
Llano, Mason, San Saba, Travis, and Williamson Counties donated to
more than 600 charities statewide; and
WHEREAS, Established in 1994, the SECC is the only
statutorily authorized workplace charity campaign for state agency
and higher education employees in Texas; screened for eligibility,
nonprofits that participate in this outstanding program include
local, national, and international organizations that provide
health and human services to individuals in need; and
WHEREAS, Thanks to the generous efforts of those who
participated, 2008 marked the fifth consecutive year that the
Capital Area SECC has exceeded the amount raised in the previous
year, and their contributions have made a positive difference in
many lives; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the 81st Legislature of the State of Texas
hereby commend the Capital Area State Employee Charitable Campaign
on its dedicated efforts in behalf of charities throughout our
state and beyond and recognize the many individuals who generously
contributed their time and money to this worthy endeavor; and, be it
further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
