Sun City, Ariz. (July 17, 2023) – In honor of dedicated community service, the volunteers and staff of the Sun Health Resale Boutique and Sun Health Resale Shop have received the Congressional Recognition Award by the U.S. House of Representatives and the Office of Congresswoman Debbie Lesko in Arizona’s 8th Congressional District (AZ-8).
The Award is presented to an individual or non-profit, church or charity in AZ-8 who has assisted citizens in their community. This recognition honors members of the AZ-8 community who strive to make the lives of others better.
“Volunteers and staff, you make a difference for everyone every day, said Monica Yelin, Outreach Director, during her presentations to each shop. “We’re celebrating your achievement because you’ve touched many lives and we cannot thank you enough for all you do. Thanks to you, you’re contributing to the improvement of programs with Banner and Sun Health Wellness through proceeds from sales that benefit people in our community.”
Yelin added, “In the words of Maya Angelou, ‘People might forget what you do or what you say, but they will never forget what you do for them and how you make them feel.’ Congratulations!”
“On behalf of all of our volunteers and staff, thank you for this recognition,“ said Sue Slezak, Retail Manager for the Sun Health Resale Shops. “We’re so proud to be a community partner in supporting the health and wellbeing of our community. In almost 40 years, total proceeds returned to the community from both shops total more than $8 million.”
