Honor their memory with a charitable gift.

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.

OUR MISSION We're on a mission to drive tangible environmental restoration and inspire collective action for a thriving planet. Our work is diverse. We provide technical and financial support for reforestation and urban greening projects. We craft creative eco-education curriculums and awareness campaigns. We run engaging nature-based events and experiences. From getting our hands dirty running local projects to consulting for global organisations, we turn ideas into impact. Greenpop was founded in 2010 and has since worked across Sub-Saharan Africa and empowered thousands of people around the world to get active (not anxious) about the future of our planet. Optimistic Environmentalism - Our Guiding Philosophy: At Greenpop, we believe in tackling environmental challenges with a mindset of hope, creativity, and tangible impact. Our work is deeply rooted in the powerful theoretical framework of Optimistic Environmentalism. This philosophy isn't just an idea; it guides every project, every partnership, and every decision we make, shaping how we contribute to a thriving planet. We interpret this framework through four primary stances: Pro-Nature We champion the conservation and restoration of nature because it holds inherent value and is absolutely essential for a habitable planet. Our projects are designed to heal and enhance ecosystems, recognising nature's vital role in our collective well-being and the balance of life on Earth. Pro-People We are committed to ensuring equality of access to nature and its benefits for all people, both today and for future generations. Creating a just world means prioritising communities, empowering diverse voices, and ensuring environmental solutions genuinely uplift and benefit everyone, especially marginalised groups. Pro-Innovation We embrace creativity, new technology, and innovative design as crucial tools for solving complex environmental challenges. We constantly seek smarter, more effective ways to make a lasting positive impact, fostering a culture of continuous learning, adaptation, and bold thinking. Pro-Action We believe that swift, meaningful environmental action is essential, not just in policy or grand initiatives, but in every sphere - personal, economic, and legislative. We activate individuals and communities to become active participants, turning concern into tangible positive change and inspiring widespread joyful engagement. These four stances form the bedrock of Greenpop's approach, demonstrating our belief that a sustainable future is not only possible but achievable through an empowered, connected, and proactive humanity. It's the philosophy that fuels our mission to drive tangible environmental restoration and inspire collective action for a thriving planet.

Rise Against Hunger is an ever-growing global movement with the goal of ending world hunger and poverty by empowering communities and responding quickly to emergencies.

The Underdog Project aims to transforms the lives of at-risk youth in Cape Town, South Africa, by pairing them with shelter dogs in a unique program that builds empathy, leadership, and emotional intelligence. Through weekly training sessions, youth learn to care for and communicate with the dogs, improving their resilience and employability. Simultaneously, the dogs benefit from the training and love, increasing their chances of adoption. Together, they foster growth and compassion in their communities. Challenge: Youth in Cape Town's underserved communities face barriers like poverty, violence, and unemployment, with limited access to safe spaces or life-skill development opportunities. Many struggle with trauma, low self-esteem, and a lack of positive role models. At the same time, shelter dogs experience neglect and limited chances of adoption. This dual problem impacts the youth's ability to thrive and the dogs' opportunities for a better life, creating a cycle of disconnection and loss. Solution: The Underdog Project addresses these challenges by pairing at-risk youth with shelter dogs in a supportive, therapeutic program. Youth learn critical life skills like empathy, responsibility, and leadership by training and caring for the dogs. The program fosters emotional growth in the youth and prepares the dogs for adoption by teaching them positive behaviors. Together, youth and dogs build bonds that enable healing, growth, and a stronger sense of purpose for both. Long-Term Impact: This project creates a ripple effect of change. Youth develop resilience, employability skills, and leadership qualities that enable them to inspire positive change in their communities. Graduates often mentor their peers, spreading lessons of empathy and non-violence. Shelter dogs benefit from training and care, increasing their adoption chances and reducing shelter overcrowding. Over time, the program contributes to building more compassionate communities where both humans and animals thrive.

The organisation reflects its members' shared concern for the future of humanity and the planet. The association sees its task as acting as an independent, global catalyst for change. The objectives of the Association are therefore: to identify the key issues that are critical to the future of humanity; to evaluate alternative scenarios for the future and assess risks, choices and opportunities through integrated and forward-looking analyses; to develop and propose practical solutions to the identified challenges; to communicate new insights and knowledge from these analyses to decision-makers in the public and private sectors, as well as to the wider public; to stimulate public debate and effective action to improve the prospects for the future of humanity and the planet. The Association's activities are guided by the following three complementary principles: 1. the need to adopt a global, systems-oriented perspective in analysing the problems facing the modern world, recognising that the increasing interdependence of nations and the globalisation of previously local problems create challenges that are beyond the capacity of individual countries. 2. the need for a comprehensive, holistic approach in order to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity and interconnectedness of both current problems and practical solutions, in political, social, economic, technological, environmental, psychological and cultural terms, which the association refers to as the 'world problematique'. 3. the need to emphasise transdisciplinary and long-term perspectives, which are all too often neglected by governments and other decision-makers, and to focus on those decisions, strategies and measures that will determine the fate of present and future generations. The aim is to arouse public interest and provide responsible decision-makers with a solid basis for formulating and implementing future-oriented measures. The association does not pursue any commercial purposes and does not seek to make a profit.

Our mission at Light of Nation Youth Projects (LNYP) is to create a thriving, inclusive, and empowered youth community by providing access to skills development, economic opportunities, health education, and social support. We are deeply committed to ensuring that young people, especially those from marginalized and disadvantaged backgrounds, have the resources and opportunities to break the cycle of poverty and achieve economic independence. Empowering Youth Through Skills Development We recognize that one of the biggest barriers young people face is the lack of marketable skills that enable them to secure employment or start their own businesses. Through our various training programs, we equip youth with practical, income-generating skills that prepare them for sustainable careers. Whether through vocational training, digital literacy, or entrepreneurship development, we ensure that each young person who engages with our programs leaves with valuable skills that can be applied in real-world scenarios. Our commitment extends to young people with disabilities, who often face additional barriers in accessing education and employment. Through initiatives like the Creativity Beyond Disability Project, we provide tailored skills training, mentorship, and business support, ensuring that no one is left behind. Driving Economic Growth Through Job Creation and Entrepreneurship We believe that empowering young people goes beyond training-it involves creating real opportunities for economic participation. Many of our programs focus on helping youth transition from skills acquisition to practical application, whether through job placements, business incubation, or market access support. We offer mentorship and guidance to young entrepreneurs, helping them develop sustainable business models, access funding opportunities, and navigate the challenges of running their own enterprises. By fostering a culture of entrepreneurship, we enable youth to create their own paths to financial independence rather than waiting for job opportunities that may never come. Additionally, our income-generating initiatives, such as merchandising and arts and crafts production, provide participants with hands-on experience in business operations. We aim to support young entrepreneurs in establishing their brands, connecting with customers, and scaling their businesses to generate sustainable income. Promoting Health Awareness and Gender Equality At LNYP, we understand that economic empowerment is closely linked to overall well-being. This is why we integrate health promotion and gender equality advocacy into our programs. Through our HIV/AIDS prevention initiatives, we educate youth on safe practices, access to healthcare services, and the importance of regular testing and treatment adherence. We also recognize the intersection between economic vulnerability and gender-based violence (GBV). Women and girls, especially those with disabilities, are often at higher risk of exploitation and abuse due to their financial dependence on caregivers or partners. Our programs aim to reduce these risks by empowering young women with economic independence, allowing them to make informed choices about their futures and reduce their vulnerability to abuse. By addressing these critical social issues, we are not only equipping youth with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed but also fostering a safer and more supportive environment in which they can thrive. Building a Stronger, More Inclusive Community We believe that sustainable change comes from within the community. This is why our programs are designed to be community-driven, with active participation from local leaders, businesses, and stakeholders. We work closely with community-based organizations, government agencies, and private sector partners to ensure that our initiatives are aligned with broader development goals and have a lasting impact. Our commitment to inclusion means that we actively create spaces where all young people, regardless of their backgrounds or abilities, feel valued and supported. We advocate for accessibility, equal opportunities, and policies that promote social and economic inclusion for all. Our Long-Term Vision Our goal is to create a future where every young person has the skills, confidence, and support to succeed. Over the next five years, we aim to: -Train over 2,500 youth in practical, income-generating skills. -Increase employment rates among youth with disabilities by 40%. -Support the sale of 1,500+ handmade products annually to help young entrepreneurs generate income. -Reduce gender-based violence vulnerability by empowering young women with financial independence. -Establish sustainable community hubs where youth can access continuous training, mentorship, and business support. Through these efforts, we are not just providing temporary solutions-we are laying the foundation for a future where young people are the driving force behind their own success and the development of their communities. At Light of Nation Youth Projects, we believe that empowering youth is the key to transforming communities. Together, we can build a future where every young person has the opportunity to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to society.
