Every day, lives are changed by a single, selfless act - the gift of organ donation. Among those waiting for transplants are 2 groups of people: those who die waiting and those who receive the gift of life. Our work raises awareness of the urgent need for organ and tissue donors while helping recipients who have overcome the impossible to live life to the fullest. These individuals have faced life's greatest challenges; they are advocates for the cause but need resources, education and community. Transplant recipients have a unique opportunity to advocate for organ donation and raise awareness. Physical activity plays a crucial role in the recovery and long-term health of recipients. When recipients compete in world events, they demonstrate to the world what can be achieved through the gift of organ donation. Additionally, our programs provide recipients with community, tools, and resources to address the many challenges they face, leading to an increased quality of life. The WTGF promotes amateur sport amongst recipients, living donors and donor families; promoting the study of transplantation; educating the public and raising awareness of the world shortage of donor organs; sharing new knowledge from biological/clinical studies; promotion of mental and moral improvement for recipients, living donors and donor families; fostering international friendship and relations.
Founded in Slovakia in 2013, Aj Ty v IT (translated as You Too in IT) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring and supporting girls and women to explore and thrive in the world of information technology. Guided by our motto, "Technology has no gender," we aim to break down societal stereotypes and ensure women play an active role in shaping the technological future. Since our inception, over 55,000 girls and women have participated in our programs, which span community-building, education, and mentorship. For primary school girls (ages 8-14), we organize engaging workshops and hands-on activities in schools and communities to introduce young girls to the exciting world of IT. Using tools like MICRO:BIT, OZOBOTs, LEGO Robots, SCRATCH, and CANVA, we create a fun, creative environment that sparks interest in technology. These programs also aim to challenge and prevent stereotypes about technology being "just for boys". For high school students (ages 15-19), we offer specialized workshops, advanced courses, and career-focused activities that equip them with essential IT skills. These programs prepare them for the workforce of the future, opening doors to careers they might not have previously considered. Adult women (ages 19+) seeking personal growth or career transformation find opportunities through our comprehensive IT academies. We support upskilling for those advancing within their current fields and reskilling for those pursuing entirely new career paths in technology. Our community events and conferences foster meaningful connections, offering mentorship and networking opportunities. To ensure sustainable change, we empower teachers with the skills and tools to make IT education more inclusive for girls. Our training programs cover the latest technologies, including AI software, and provide access to free resources through our TECHLIB library, where educators can borrow hardware to enrich their classroom activities.
