The World Transplant Games Federation

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.

Fundacion Futbol para el Desarrollo

Its mission is to create a more equitable and just society based on the guarantee of human rights for all people. We are a human group that promotes and facilitates community social transformation processes. To this end, we rely on the great potential of sports, especially soccer, to convene and attract diverse groups: children and youth, women, adults, neighborhood clubs and other community institutions (schools, community centers, health facilities and others). Together with them, we carry out projects that increase their human and social capital, that favor social, educational and labor inclusion, that improve the social fabric and the institutional framework where community life develops, and that promote access to rights.
