A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE DYAN WEBB OF GREENWOOD FOR BEING NAMED 2009 SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION WOMEN IN BUSINESS CHAMPION OF THE YEAR FOR SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, the South Carolina Senate is pleased to learn that Dyan Webb of Greenwood has been named the 2009 Small Business Administration (SBA) Women in Business Champion of the Year for South Carolina; and

Whereas, Ms. Webb is a twentyyear member of Business & Professional Women, a national organization whose mission is to “achieve equity for all women through advocacy, education, and information”. She is involved with both the local Greenwood chapter, which she helps run, and the state chapter, where she has served a term as president. She has also served as a representative to the organization’s national board; and

Whereas, a trained speech pathologist, Ms. Webb provides communication skills assistance to women business owners through her own small business, Corporate Communications; and

Whereas, as a volunteer, she works to strengthen the role of women business owners within the community. Her most recent pro bono work for the local small business community includes teaching a session on business etiquette and networking for the Greenwood Chamber’s Connect YP program, which fosters business success for area young professionals; and

Whereas, in addition to her work with the Business and Professional Women organization, where she enthusiastically mentors the group’s members, Ms. Webb helps women start small businesses of their own, even when the startup businesses might present competition for her own company; and

Whereas, recognizing the excellence of her example, the Senate takes great pleasure in honoring Ms. Webb for winning the prestigious SBA Women in Business Champion of the Year award for 2009 and wishes her every future success. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, congratulate Dyan Webb of Greenwood for being named 2009 Small Business Administration Women in Business Champion of the Year for South Carolina.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Dyan Webb.
