A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND CHARLOTTE OVERTON MORAN OF SEABROOK ISLAND FOR HER LONGTIME EFFORTS, DEDICATION, AND WORK WITH HABITAT FOR HUMANITY AND TO CONGRATULATE HER UPON BEING AWARDED THE ANGEL OAK AWARD BY THE EXCHANGE CLUB OF KIAWAH-SEABROOK.

Whereas, it is altogether fitting and proper that the South Carolina House of Representatives should pause in its deliberations to express gratitude to Charlotte Overton Moran for her significant contributions in her community; and

Whereas, after a successful thirty-three-year career in regulatory compliance with Citibank, N.A. in New York, Ms. Moran and her husband, Ed, relocated to Seabrook Island in 2003 to begin their retirement and slower-paced way of life; and

Whereas, upon settling into life in the Lowcountry, Ms. Moran quickly realized her desire to become involved in her community. Having worked with Habitat for Humanity in New York, she sought to again partner with Habitat. She began working with the Sea Island Habitat one day a week and has since become one of the organization's leaders. She is currently serving her second six-year term as board member and treasurer, chairs the land planning committee, and works with other building and repair activities on Johns Island, James Island, and Wadmalaw Island; and

Whereas, in addition to the leadership roles which Ms. Moran shoulders, the annual Women Build event has become a large project she holds near and dear. Each year, women in and around the Charleston area gather for a week to build a Habitat home, and under the guidance of construction professionals, they receive training on site. This year's Women Build event was held April 23 through April 30; and

Whereas, in addition to her work with the Sea Island Habitat, Ms. Moran also works with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra League and chairs the Seabrook Island Property Owners Association Election Commission; and

Whereas, the Angel Oak Award was established by the Exchange Club of Kiawah-Seabrook in 2012 to recognize a volunteer who has made an outstanding contribution to the people or to the quality of life on Johns Island, Wadmalaw Island, Kiawah Island or Seabrook Island. Further, as a part of this award, the Exchange Club makes a five thousand dollar donation to a local charity of the recipient's choice; and

Whereas, Ms. Moran will be honored at this year's Angel Oak Awards Banquet scheduled to be held on May 18, 2022, at Wingate Place on Johns Island; and

Whereas, the members of the House of Representatives recognize that the success of the State of South Carolina, the strength of its communities, and the vitality of American society as a whole depend, in great measure, upon the dedication of individuals like Charlotte Overton Moran who use their talents and resources to serve others. Gratefully, the House of Representatives acknowledges Ms. Moran's invaluable and far-reaching contributions to the betterment of the Palmetto State and this country. 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 commend Charlotte Overton Moran of Seabrook Island for her longtime efforts, dedication, and work with Habitat for Humanity and congratulate her upon being awarded the Angel Oak Award by the Exchange Club of Kiawah-Seabrook.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Charlotte Overton Moran.
