Bill > HR335

This resolution recognizes February 13, 2025, as Donor Day at the state capitol, honoring organ, eye, and tissue donors in Georgia. The resolution highlights that in 2024, nearly 3,100 Georgians provided life-saving or life-improving donations, including 176 living kidney donors, and acknowledges the work of organizations like LifeLink of Georgia and Donate Life Georgia in supporting and facilitating organ donation. It emphasizes the ongoing efforts to support the nearly 2,900 Georgians awaiting organ transplants and encourages individuals to register as donors through various means, such as obtaining a driver's license or registering online. The resolution commends the selfless individuals and families who make donation possible and calls for recognizing those who have given the gift of life, those who have received transplants, those currently waiting for transplants, and those who died while waiting. Additionally, the resolution directs the House Clerk to provide a copy of the resolution to LifeLink of Georgia, formally acknowledging their important work in organ donation and transplantation.
