Food Allergy Awareness Week 2011

Food Allergy Kids of Atlanta organized a group photo with Georgia Governor Nathan Deal & 25 of our local food allergic children at the GA State Capitol on May 2, 2011, to witness Governor Deal signing a proclamation declaring Food Allergy Awareness Week in GA, May 8th - May 14th, 2011.  

Attendees included 24 local food allergic children, Luke Pilgrim, Musician & FAAN Ambassador, & Karen Demuth, M.D., Pediatric Allergist/Immunology Specialist, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Emory University & FA Kids of Atlanta medical advisor.

Children were able to:
- Speak personally with the Governor
-View the proclamation
-Be involved with food allergy advocacy efforts in their state
- Meet other children advocates
- AND each child & family member received a teal awareness bracelet upon arrival

Many thanks to Governor Deal & his wonderful staff, FA Kids of Atlanta members, Luke Pilgrim & Dr. Karen Demuth, & FAAN for creating food allergy awareness week!
