The Georgia Healthy Family Alliance (GHFA) Board is aware that several Georgia communities were impacted by multiple tornadoes January 12, 2023, including Butts, Henry, Jasper, Meriwether, Newton, Spalding and Troup counties. Our thoughts and prayers are with those who were impacted by these storms.
Because damage is still being assessed in the impacted communities, we want you to know that the Georgia Academy’s Foundation (GHFA) has a Disaster Relief Fund to help our members who may have experienced damage to their practice. We established this fund in 2007 and over the years have helped several Georgia Academy members get their clinics reopened to support them and the communities they serve.
If you are aware of a family physician in need or if you have damage to your office don’t hesitate to contact us at (404) 321-7445. Kara Sinkule (ksinkule@gafp.org) can assist you with filling out a simple disaster relief application.
