En lenguaje claro
This resolution does not change any Georgia law. Instead, it is a formal statement from the Georgia House of Representatives praising Hemophilia of Georgia, a nonprofit based in Sandy Springs that has served people with bleeding disorders like hemophilia and Von Willebrand disease since the early 1970s. The resolution lists the organization's work, including running two accredited pharmacies that supply factor products to patients, operating a children's camp called Camp Wannaklot, supporting research at Emory and St. Jude, and serving as the Southeast Regional Core Center for bleeding disorder care. The House resolves to commend the organization, its staff, volunteers, and the people it serves, and directs the Clerk of the House to send a copy of the resolution to Hemophilia of Georgia.
