This resolution honors Emily Griffis for receiving the Governor's Volunteer Stars Award, recognizing her exceptional community service within the context of Tennessee's broader volunteer landscape. The resolution highlights that Tennessee's volunteers contribute significantly to the state, with 1.3 million individuals donating 99 million hours of community service annually, which translates to a $2.6 billion economic contribution. It emphasizes that volunteers like Griffis are the "backbone of our communities" by fulfilling critical needs through their donated time and talents. The Senate of the 114th General Assembly of Tennessee formally acknowledges Griffis as a model citizen who embodies the spirit of the "Volunteer State" and extends congratulations and best wishes for her future success. Additionally, the resolution includes a provision for preparing an official copy of the document for presentation, with the option to remove certain administrative language upon request.
