About the organisation
Since Queen Mary Hospital successfully performed Hong Kong's first liver transplant in October 1991, by mid-1998, the number of successful transplants has increased dramatically. Patients who have received transplants and those who are waiting for transplants urgently need an organization of their own. To support each other, The Hong Kong Liver Transplant Patients' Association was born. The Hong Kong Liver Transplant Patients' Association is a non-profit organization composed of a group of people who have received and are waiting for liver transplants, relatives and friends who have donated part of their living livers, and their family members. It was registered as a society in Hong Kong in May 1998 and was subsequently accepted as a charitable organization. The Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department granted tax exemption status for donations made to charitable organizations.
