Whereas, the firm has invested more than $100,000 in local charitable giving over the past five years, including contributions awarded through its highly regarded grants program; and

Whereas, because he strongly believes in giving back to his community, Chris Manley also serves the Upstate through affiliations with various organizations.

Further, he is a 2014 Greenville Health System Medical Scholar, a member of the Friends of the Greenville Zoo Board, and a volunteer with Junior Achievement; and

Whereas, this graduate of Leadership Greenville Class 39 was named one of Greenville's Best and Brightest under age thirty-five in 2012. In 2013, in further testimony to the esteem in which he is held by the business community, he received the U.S. Small Business Administration's South Carolina Young Entrepreneur of the Year award; and

Whereas, grateful for his excellence and dedication, the House takes great pleasure in congratulating Chris Manley on receiving this latest honor, the 2014 Greenville Chamber of Commerce Young Professional of the Year award. 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 Chris Manley of Powdersville on the occasion of being named the 2014 Greenville Chamber of Commerce Young Professional of the Year and wish him continued success in all his future endeavors.
