Recently Mary presented the DonateLife ACT Book of Life to the Director of Libraries ACT, Ms Vanessa Little, to mark Donate Life week 2013.
The Book of Life includes many inspirational Canberra stories about organ and tissue donation of both recipients and donors’ families.
In 2012, as a result of the generosity of 12 organ donors and their families, Canberra achieved its highest-ever annual organ donation outcomes. 30 people received life-saving organ transplants and, in addition 66 people received the gift of sight from eye tissue donors.
