This resolution honors Haylee Martin, a volunteer from Fentress County, Tennessee, who received the Governor's Volunteer Stars Award for her exceptional community service. The resolution highlights Martin's significant contributions, including her leadership in the Rotary Club, her role as volunteer coordinator for Quality Hospice Care, and her board memberships with the Fentress Hope Foundation and Fentress County Chamber of Commerce. The document contextualizes her work within Tennessee's broader volunteerism landscape, noting that the state's 1.3 million volunteers contribute 99 million hours of community service annually, valued at $2.6 billion. The resolution emphasizes Martin's commitment to "service above self" and recognizes her as an exemplary citizen who embodies the spirit of the "Volunteer State". Ultimately, the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate formally honor Martin, congratulate her on her award, and wish her future success, while also directing that an official copy of the resolution be prepared for presentation.
