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.
