En lenguaje claro
This resolution from the Georgia Senate honors the convenience store chain QuikTrip for its charitable response to Hurricane Helene in State Senate District 19. It states that QuikTrip donated $110,000 to several local relief funds and organizations, including the Toombs Strong Fund, the Weathered but Strong Fund, Manna House Ministries, Effingham Family Connection, and Screven Family Connection. The resolution also notes that QuikTrip delivered about $45,000 worth of supplies such as water, drinks, food, and flashlights to affected communities. The Senate formally commends the company for this assistance, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for QuikTrip. The resolution does not change any Georgia law; it is a symbolic statement of appreciation.
