Today is World Hepatitis Day. 'We’re not waiting’ is the campaign theme for 2023. It aims to unite the global community to demand action from decision-makers globally to prioritise the elimination of viral hepatitis.

Every year, more than a million lives are lost to hepatitis.
We’re not waiting for change - we’re fighting to make it happen.

Don't wait. Take action!

Did you know that in Australia, your family will always be asked to support your decision to be an organ and tissue donor before the donation goes ahead?

Families are much more likely to agree if they know you want to be a donor.

Have a chat with your family today about becoming an organ and tissue donor. ❤️

Today is the start of DonateLife Week - a cause close to many people's hearts. Right now there are around 1,800 Australians on the waitlist for a life-saving organ transplant.

Let’s give those in need some hope, by registering as organ and tissue donors, and educating your family on what organ donation is. ❤

Could you donate 1 minute to give someone a lifetime? Head to donatelife.gov.au/register or jump into the Medicare app to register in just 3 quick taps.
