Welcome to Egg Donation Australia

Founded in 2011, Egg Donation Australia began with a clear mission: to start important conversations, drive meaningful change, and make egg donation more accessible across the country. What started as a grassroots effort to raise awareness has grown into a trusted, inclusive national community.
We recognise that egg donation is not just a medical process—it has a significant impact on people’s lives. As a peer-led, not-for-profit organisation, we are committed to supporting, educating, and advocating for individuals and families formed through donor conception and surrogacy.
Our platform offers a safe and supportive environment where donors, recipients, and those exploring their options can connect, learn, and navigate the process with confidence. Whether you're considering donating, looking for a donor, or seeking information, we’re here to support you at every stage.

Donor Conception Awareness Day: How to Join the Movement

International Donor Conception Awareness Day (IDCAD) is coming up on April 27, 2025, and in this episode, Donor Conception expert Jana Ruptow shares how you can get involved in this growing global movement. Whether you're a parent, a donor-conceived person, a professional, or simply an ally, there’s a meaningful way for you to participate.

IDCAD is about lifting the shame and secrecy around donor conception and centring the voices of those with lived experience. This year, partners from the U.S., U.K., Australia, Canada, and beyond are joining in to raise awareness and advocate for more ethical, transparent practices in donor conception.
