En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Beyond the Ribbon, a nonprofit organization that has provided financial and emotional support to cancer patients and their families since gaining nonprofit (501(c)(3)) tax status in October 2017. The resolution recounts the organization's history, including grocery gift cards in 2018, holiday support for families in 2019, a Back to School Supplies program started in 2020, rental assistance in 2021, community events like Kid's Day at the Farm and Survivor Spa Days starting in 2022, and tens of thousands of dollars in aid distributed through 2024. It does not change any Georgia law; it simply directs the Clerk of the House to give Beyond the Ribbon a copy of the resolution as a formal show of recognition.
