WE’VE DONE IT🙌🏽🥳

In just 12 hours we have raised over half a million dollars!

And it's all thanks to YOU🥰

Even though donations today are no longer matched, it doesn’t mean your support isn’t still needed and won’t have a life-changing impact❤️‍🩹

Please donate and your support will enable the Flying Doctor to fuel more life-saving flights, train more flight nurses and help more Victorians access essential health care they need✈️

Did you know, across Australia, every 90 seconds someone needs the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

For nearly 100 years we have been there for Australians, no matter the location or distance.

But alarmingly...

⏱️ Rural Australians die up to 13 years earlier than those in cities

🏥 Remote Australians are 2.7 times more likely to die from avoidable causes

❤️‍🩹 More than 134,000 rural Australians do not have access to mental health services

Accessing essential health care is a human right. No one who lives, works or travels across the country should have to go without.

This is why we need your help. There is still so much work that needs to be done.

On Tuesday 20 May 2025, between 8am and 8pm, we are aiming to raise $400,000. All donations will be doubled thanks to our generous matching partners.

This means your support will go twice as far - the more you give, the further we fly!

Every dollar raised will help the Flying Doctor in Victoria to:

🩺 Stock our health care clinics and bases with vital equipment and medications

✈️ Fuel our fleet to keep us in the air and on the road

❤️‍🩹 Connect communities to much needed wellbeing support

👩‍⚕️ Give communities the opportunity to visit a female GP

🚗 Transport Victorians to the healthcare they need

Your donation saves lives.

Meet some of the Victorians who needed our care 💙
