WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to recognize that the
quality and character of life in the communities of New York State are
reflective of the concerned and dedicated efforts of organizations and
individuals who devote themselves to the welfare of the community and
its citizenry, paying particular attention to the youth of the communi-
ty; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its long-
standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to honor
Elijah Pore upon the occasion of his designation as recipient of the

the Albany Marriott; and
WHEREAS, The Black and Latino Achievers Awards Banquet, one of the
Capital District YMCA's most memorable events, celebrates the accom-
plishments of student and adult achievers and illustrates how much can
be achieved when dedicated adults support and mentor young people,
encouraging them, through participation in the program, to set meaning-
ful educational goals and to make positive contributions to their commu-
nity; Elijah Pore is one such individual; and
WHEREAS, Elijah Pore will receive this auspicious award for his
outstanding community involvement and volunteer service to the Capital
District YMCA; and

of the Capital District YMCA, as well as on the community-at-large, and
accordingly merits recognition and applause for his impressive dedi-
cation to others; and
WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when individ-
uals of such commitment, dedication and accomplishment are brought to
our attention, they should be celebrated and recognized by all the citi-
zens of this great Empire State; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
honor Elijah Pore upon the occasion of his designation as recipient of
the Black and Latino Adult Achiever Award by the Capital District YMCA
at its 12th Annual Awards Banquet on June 2, 2015; and be it further
