Numbers are important at tax time, and our numbers tell an important story about how the support of Western Australians is critical to our service.

Recent independent analysis by Deloitte Access Economics shows the Royal Flying Doctor Service WA is expected to deliver $4.1 billion in social value to Western Australians over the next 30 years, providing a two-to-one return on every dollar invested in the service.

RFDS WA are expected to deliver $4.1 billion in social value over the next 30 years

The social value is generated through:

  • Existence value, which represents the value WA households are willing to pay to support the RFDS's continued operations.
  • Aeromedical retrievals, emergency evacuations and inter-hospital transfers.
  • Value created through remote clinics, telehealth, medical chests and more.

A donation to the RFDS provides peace of mind for so many Western Australians, knowing that future generations can access our services including for unexpected emergencies.

Make a tax-deductible donation before 30 June.

With help from generous donors like you, people can live, work and travel in regional and remote areas of WA knowing the RFDS is here to help.
