A LEGISLATIVE COMMEMORATION,
Commending and honoring Michelle Sanger for
receiving the Prudential Spirit of Community Award for being one of the top volunteers in
South Dakota.
WHEREAS,
Michelle Sanger, an esteemed resident of Redfield and a student at Redfield
High School, has achieved national recognition for exemplary volunteer service by receiving
a 2007 Prudential Spirit of Community Award. This award is presented by Prudential Financial
in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals to honor young
volunteers across America who have demonstrated an extraordinary commitment to serving
their communities; and
WHEREAS,
Michelle Sanger earned this award by giving generously of her time and energy
to volunteer missions to Nicaragua and Cambodia to aid impoverished people. Michelle helped
raise money and collect supplies before her trips and then assisted with medical, education,
water, and other projects to improve the lives of poor Nicaraguans and Cambodians; and
WHEREAS,
the success of the State of South Dakota, the strength of our communities, and
the overall vitality of American society depend, in great measure, upon the dedication of young
people like Michelle Sanger who use their considerable talents and resources to serve others:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT COMMEMORATED,
by the Eighty-second Legislature of the
State of South Dakota, that Michelle Sanger be commended and honored as a recipient of the
Prudential Spirit of Community Award, and for her outstanding record of volunteer service,
leadership, and community spirit.
