Bill > HR957

This resolution recognizes April 5, 2025, as Run Atlanta 5K Day, a community event organized by the 100 Black Men of Atlanta Inc. The event aims to promote health, wellness, and violence prevention, with a specific focus on combating gun violence and creating safer environments. Led by Chairman Sid Barron and committees headed by Dr. Winston Carhee and Joshua Byrd, the 5K race and related activities will include a Sunrise Prayer for Violence Prevention and a Walk for Peace & Well-being. The resolution honors Kenneth Collier Jr., a 17-year-old peace advocate who was tragically killed by gun violence, and his mother Tamika Trimble, also a victim of violence. By recognizing this day, the resolution seeks to unite individuals across Atlanta and Georgia in a collective effort to address community violence, promote physical fitness, and work toward a more peaceful future. The resolution also directs the House of Representatives' Clerk to make copies of the resolution available for public and press distribution.
