PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, healthy food is essential to thriving, to growth and to a prosperous, long life, but those without land to grow food or money to buy it are likely to suffer from hunger; and

WHEREAS, 800 million people around the world are hungry, including 11 to 12 percent of Americans, 3.2 million children die from hunger each year and 66 million primary school age children around the world go to school hungry, with one in five American schoolchildren who risk going to school hungry; and

WHEREAS, the CROP Hunger Walk has been organizing cities and towns across America to fight hunger around the world and in their communities for 50 years; and

WHEREAS, Elgin has been part of the CROP Hunger Walk since 1983 raising over $625,000 in the fight against hunger; and

WHEREAS, by participating in the CROP Hunger Walk, attention can be drawn not only to the problems of hunger, but also to solutions, improving the quality of life of all of our neighbors, no matter where they live, and supporting thriving livelihoods for all people.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, David Kaptain, Mayor of the City of Elgin, Illinois, do hereby proclaim Sunday, October 20, 2019 as CROP HUNGER WALK DAY in Elgin and encourage all citizens to support observances that raise public awareness concerning hunger and poverty, their causes and their solutions.

Domestic Violence Awareness Month Proclamation 

Mayor Kaptain read the following proclamation:

PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, violence against women and children continues to become a more prevalent problem and is not confined to any group of people, but across all economic, gender, racial and societal barriers and is supported by societal indifference; and

WHEREAS, the crime of domestic violence violates an individual’s privacy, dignity, security and humanity through the systematic use of physical, emotional, sexual, psychological and economic control and/or abuse; and

WHEREAS, the impact of domestic violence is wide-ranging, directly affecting families and society as a whole; and

WHEREAS, it is battered women themselves who have been at the forefront of efforts to bring peace and equity to the home; and

WHEREAS, it is fitting to set aside a special time to bring this issue to the attention of all residents of the City of Elgin so they can become better informed and involved in programs to eliminate this epidemic from our society.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, David Kaptain, Mayor of the City of Elgin, Illinois, do hereby proclaim the month of October 2019 as Domestic Violence Awareness Month in the City of Elgin and encourage our residents to join forces with victim service programs, criminal justice officials and concerned citizens across the country to raise the public awareness of domestic violence issues.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 9th day of October, 2019.
