Giving Tuesday – Donate Now to Support the Global Fight Against Sepsis – This Year More Than Ever

#givingtuesday

Today is #GivingTuesday, a movement established in 2012 as a response to the consumeristic overdose of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Fueled by the power of social media and the sentiment of collaboration, the initiative/movement encourages people to give back to the society and support good causes.

Sepsis affects 47 to 50 million people worldwide every year, with at least 11 million deaths. The majority of sepsis survivors suffer from the consequences of sepsis for the rest of their lives. Sepsis disproportionally affects children under 5 as well as low-resource settings.

With your help, we can continue to fight sepsis globally - raising awareness, affecting policy and implementing national sepsis plans, educating healthcare providers and laypeople about sepsis, and much more.

Your support makes a difference – this year more than ever. Stop Sepsis, Save Lives.

P.S.: You can also help by signing the World Sepsis Declaration, shopping at our online shop, sending our video explaining sepsis to a friend, or by downloading and disseminating our resources raising awareness for sepsis.
