Cobb Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Sept. 9.
Life University (Life U) alumna and current member of the Georgia House Representatives Dr. Karen Mathiak presented a commendation from Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and the Georgia State Legislature in honor of Founders Month for Research to Life University yesterday, September 7. Founders Month for Research is a 30-day campaign in the month of September centered around the founding date of Chiropractic: September 18, 1895. Life University dedicates the entire month to raising resources and awareness for Chiropractic research.
Yesterday’s event, held by Life U’s Dr. Sid E. Williams Center for Chiropractic Research (CCR) in midtown Atlanta, provided further support that Life U’s administration and those faculty, staff and students that work in the CCR are dedicated to tell the chiropractic story using the language of research.
“The recognition from the Governor of Georgia and the Georgia State Legislature that Chiropractic is a profession worth getting behind from a research standpoint is monumental,” noted CCR Director Dr. Stephanie Sullivan. “We are grateful to Dr. Mathiak for her efforts in spreading awareness for Chiropractic researcher’s need for funding so that we continue to conduct research both relevant to chiropractic patients and those working within the field.”
In celebration of 126 years of Chiropractic, Life U is asking donors to please consider a gift of $126, $1,260 or more. If donors would like to set up their own personal Fundraising Page, they can click on the following link for helpful step-by-step instructions: Alumni.LIFE.edu/personalgiving.
