A TRIBUTE TO INTERPRINT, INC. UNDER THE LEADERSHIP OF WILLIAM M. HINES, 
                                  SR.

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN W. OLVER

                            of massachusetts

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, September 7, 2005

  Mr. OLVER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to commend the outstanding community 
service of Interprint, Inc., which for 20 years, under the direction of 
William M. Hines, Sr., has continually made social responsibility and 
community involvement a hallmark of the company. Mr. Hines recognizes 
the importance of building and maintaining a community presence which 
has become a keystone of Interprint, Inc.'s success as well as the City 
of Pittsfield.
  Recently, Mr. Hines has chaired a number of specialty events for the 
American Red Cross--Berkshire County Chapter (2003-2004), including the 
2004 Fashion Show, which raised $10,000 to help disaster victims of 
Berkshire County.
  In addition, Interprint, Inc. has always been a pacesetter company 
for the Berkshire United Way Annual Fund Drive which supports the 
enhancement of the quality of life in our community through the support 
of non-profit human service organizations and their programs. 
Interprint also has supported the American Heart Association as a 
sponsor for the Heart Ball in 2003 and 2004 and the American Heart Walk 
in 2004. Mr. Hines was also involved with the Capital Fund Drive for 
Kid's Place in 1997 raising funds to provide an interdisciplinary, 
cooperative team approach to address the needs of children subjected to 
violence. The center provides a safe, caring, home-like atmosphere that 
coordinates the combined knowledge of law enforcement, social service, 
medical, prosecutorial, and mental health agencies to ensure an 
effective response to childhood trauma.
  Finally, I commend Interprint, Inc. on its 20th Anniversary, 
September 15, 2005, for the many years of community service that it has 
contributed to Berkshire County. I look forward to the many years ahead 
that Interprint, Inc. will continue to be a productive and contributing 
member of the surrounding community.
