  Whereas, it is a very great pleasure to salute the Taylors Lions Club, which has provided seventy-five continuous years of service in enhancing quality of life for the citizens of Greenville County and beyond;

and   Whereas, the Taylors club is a member of Lions Clubs International and South Carolina Lions.

Lions Clubs International (LCI), founded in 1917 by Chicago business leader Melvin Jones, is dedicated to making the world a better place.

The largest service organization in the world, LCI has become the world leader in blindness prevention and works extensively in members' local communities to aid those in need through offering vision-assistance programs, helping the disabled, feeding the hungry, providing disaster relief, and much more;

and   Whereas, sponsored by the Greer Lions Club and chartered on October 24, 1950, the Taylors Lions Club was imbued with a mission to empower volunteers to serve their communities, meet humanitarian needs, encourage peace, and promote international understanding through Lions clubs;

and   Whereas, for seventy-five years, the Taylors Lions Club has served as a cornerstone of its community, adapting and growing to meet the evolving needs of its residents and consistently demonstrating a profound commitment to living out its motto, We Serve;

and   Whereas, the Taylors Lions Club's legacy includes countless contributions.

The club has conducted eye screenings and paid for eye exams and eyeglasses continuously throughout the year, as needed by individuals in the community.

For over three years, club members and friends renovated the Lion Jerry Hatley Clubhouse on Main Street, which was in disrepair for years.

Due to the Lions' work, assisted by in-kind donations of supplies and labor, this clubhouse is a permanent venue for the Lions' activities and service;

and   Whereas, further, the club coordinated a three-state (South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia) relief effort for New York victims of 2012's Hurricane Sandy.

Three semitrailer trucks were loaded with supplies from personal donations, along with items purchased through monetary contributions from businesses.

In addition, the club donated $3,600 to the South Carolina School for the Deaf and the Blind in Spartanburg to assist in building a playground for the students;

and   Whereas, moreover, in honor and memory of several Lions, the club bought two personal bricks at $500 and also donated $500 to adopt a puppy to be trained at the Leader Dog for the Blind facility in Rochester, Michigan;

and   Whereas, by means of their vision and hard work throughout the club's history, the members of the Taylors Lions Club have positively impacted the lives of thousands of individuals and made the community a better place to live;

and   Whereas, grateful for the committed service and outstanding contributions of the Taylors Lions Club, most particularly in Greenville County, the people of South Carolina extend best wishes to the club in all its future endeavors as its members continue to serve.

Now, therefore,   Be it resolved by the Senate:

  That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate the Taylors Lions Club upon the occasion of its seventy-fifth anniversary and express the utmost gratitude for its many years of dedicated service to the citizens of Greenville County and beyond.

  Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Taylors Lions Club.
