The bill, H. 4979, is a House Resolution recognizing and honoring Logan Wells, the founder of Fresh Friends, for her significant contributions to communities in South Carolina. Fresh Friends began as a school club at Heathwood Hall, aimed at promoting volunteerism, inclusivity, and friendship among high school students. It has since evolved into a nonprofit organization that connects teen volunteers with service opportunities across the state, partnering with various local and national organizations to foster community engagement.
The resolution highlights the organization's mission to combat divisive forces among younger generations through service and inclusivity. It acknowledges the impact Fresh Friends has made in the Midlands, including partnerships with the Downtown Church of Columbia and the Salvation Army. The House of Representatives expresses appreciation for Logan Wells' dedication and the positive influence of Fresh Friends, wishing her continued success in expanding the organization's reach and impact. A copy of the resolution will be presented to Logan Wells.
