	SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 75
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
	recognize the 17th Annual Breast Cancer Awareness Chili and
	Bar-B-Que Cook-Off, which is being held October 14, 2017; and

	WHEREAS, This exceptional event was founded in 2000 by the
	late Patsy Childress as a way to give back to the community;
	through the years, the event has raised more than $550,000 in
	charitable contributions; and

	WHEREAS, Proceeds from the cook-off benefit the Gifts of
	Hope, an organization that provides help with day-to-day expenses
	for patients at the Allison Cancer Center; Gifts of Hope also
	supports the Hope House, a "home-away-from-home" that is offered
	free of charge to patients from out of town while they receive
	treatment; and

	WHEREAS, Texans are noted for their charitable initiatives,
	as well as for their enjoyment of community gatherings, and it is
	hoped that many will attend the 17th Annual Breast Cancer
	Awareness Chili and Bar-B-Que Cook-Off, as this spirited
	competition is being organized for a truly worthy cause; now,
	therefore, be it

	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th
	Legislature, hereby commend the sponsors of the 17th Annual
	Breast Cancer Awareness Chili and Bar-B-Que Cook-Off and extend
	to all participants best wishes for a successful event; and, be
	it further

	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
	them as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate.

	Seliger
