            Senator Clark-Coleman offered the following resolution:

            Senate Resolution No. 34.

            A resolution recognizing April 25, 2009, as Comcast Cares Day in Michigan.

            Whereas, Comcast, a leader in the telecommunications industry, not only provides quality communications products and services, but enriches the communities it serves; and

            Whereas, Comcast has instituted an employee volunteer program, Comcast Cares, to further the company's commitment to community by identifying meaningful volunteer opportunities in which its employees are encouraged to participate; and

            Whereas, Saturday, April 25, 2009, has been designated as national Comcast Cares Day, when an estimated 50,000 employees, family, and community partners nationwide will participate in hundreds of volunteer projects across the country; and

            Whereas, Latino Family Services-Detroit will join forces along with more than 2,300 Comcast employees, family members, and friends volunteering their service that day statewide for Comcast Cares Day 2009; and

            Whereas, Comcast has identified specific needs of Latino Family Services, an agency providing services for family, youth, seniors, AIDS, and developmentally disabled persons, and it has been determined that services are needed for painting and other cleanup projects; now, therefore, be it

            Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby officially recognize April 25, 2009, as Comcast Cares Day in the city of Detroit and the state of Michigan. We salute the efforts of the Comcast employees, their families, and community volunteers of Latino Family Services and many caring individuals for participating in this volunteer project to make a difference in our local community; and be it further

            Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Comcast and Latino Family Services-Detroit as a token of our highest esteem.
