It recognizes the dedication of volunteers from Caddo, Bossier, and DeSoto Parishes who provide essential support and guidance to help children succeed. By designating this day, the House of Representatives aims to honor the invaluable service of these volunteers and the positive influence they have on the lives of the children they serve.
