WHEREAS, Our communities draw immeasurable strength from | ||
individuals such as Shellie Hayes-McMahon of Cedar Park, whose | ||
contributions to the House District 136 Neighbor to Neighbor Food | ||
and Wellness Program have greatly benefited area Texans; and | ||
WHEREAS, In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the program | ||
was established through a partnership between Hill Country | ||
Community Ministries and the offices of State Representative John | ||
Bucy III and a bipartisan group of local leaders to check in on area | ||
senior citizens and people with disabilities and to provide them | ||
with food deliveries; and | ||
WHEREAS, This noteworthy initiative benefits from many | ||
dedicated volunteers, including Ms. Hayes-McMahon, who has given | ||
generously of her time to help some of the most vulnerable local | ||
residents; on March 27, 2020, the program made its first | ||
contactless deliveries to those with an urgent need for food; the | ||
service has since grown to support more than 120 families each week, | ||
and volunteers have delivered upwards of 40,000 meals; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through her diligent work with the Neighbor to | ||
Neighbor Food and Wellness Program, Shellie Hayes-McMahon has | ||
demonstrated the power that all citizens have to make a positive | ||
difference, and it is indeed fitting that she be recognized for her | ||
commitment to being a force for good; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby commend Shellie Hayes-McMahon for her | ||
contributions to the House District 136 Neighbor to Neighbor Food | ||
and Wellness Program and extend to her sincere best wishes for the | ||

RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Ms. Hayes-McMahon as an expression of high regard by | ||
the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
