A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR EIGHT-YEAR-OLD EMERSYN J. "EMMY" MOORE OF AIKEN COUNTY FOR HELPING TO LIFT THE BURDEN OF HOMELESS PEOPLE IN HER COMMUNITY.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that Emersyn J. "Emmy" Moore worked to bring Christmas cheer to some of those less fortunate than she is; and

Whereas, the daughter of Eric and Megan Moore, Emmy is a fourth grade student at Jefferson Elementary School in Warrenville, whose favorite subject is math and who loves to read; and

Whereas, Emmy's vast energy spills into her play on softball and volleyball teams with North Augusta Parks and Recreation; and

Whereas, she was baptized at Samaritan Baptist Church in Varnville and attends Mt. Anna Baptist Church in Aiken with her parents; and

Whereas while making a list of Christmas presents she would like in 2019, Emmy realized she is lucky to have a home, so she added another wish to her Christmas list: "Give back to the homeless"; and

Whereas, Emmy had a plan: she began CashApp and PayPal accounts and collected donations to use to bring holiday gifts and necessities to a homeless shelter; and

Whereas, by mid-January, she had raised one thousand eight hundred dollars, and her wish became real; and

Whereas, with each donation she received, Emmy felt a little more Christmas magic and realized others are also interested in helping their neighbors in need; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is proud of young citizens like Emmy Moore who recognize at an early age their responsibility to take action in their communities in order to become part of the solution for the problems that they see. 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 eight-year-old Emersyn J. "Emmy" Moore of Aiken County for helping to lift the burden of homeless people in her community.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Emersyn J. "Emmy" Moore.
