This resolution commemorates the 50th anniversary of Gift of Life International, a global network of organizations that has provided life-saving cardiac care to over 62,000 children in 80 countries since its founding in 1975. The resolution highlights the organization's significant achievements, including its growth into the world's largest non-governmental organization (NGO) focused on pediatric cardiac care in developing nations, its successful sustainability strategies that enable local healthcare systems to provide ongoing treatment, and its continued dedication to treating children even amidst global challenges. It also acknowledges the upcoming Golden Jubilee Gala on September 13, 2025, which will celebrate the organization's legacy, honor key partners like St. Francis Hospital and The HeartGift Foundation, and inspire future efforts in pediatric cardiac care, with a copy of the resolution to be sent to Gift of Life International.
