In plain language

This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate honoring Mike Dobbs, who joined Camp Southern Ground in 2016 to help build the organization from its early stages. The camp was designed to serve children of all abilities and to help veterans and their families find renewal after military service. The resolution recounts Dobbs's accomplishments, including helping raise more than $77 million, strengthening the camp's board of directors, and shifting its fundraising away from reliance on its founder toward a broader base of corporate and philanthropic support.
