DonateLife WA’s Jersey Day 30 August 2024 As part of DonateLife WA's Jersey Day, we're being reminded about the importance of registering as organ and tissue donors. Organ and tissue donation can transform the lives of many Australians and could provide a loved one with a second chance at life. One organ donor can save the lives of up to seven people and help many more through eye and tissue donation. This year the National Rugby League WA (NRL WA) has thrown its support behind Jersey Day to encourage people to start a conversation with their teammates, family and friends about signing up as organ and tissue donors. For more information or to register visit the Donate Life website (external site).
