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.
The People for People brand aims to build a collective of decisive people who have founded or work at companies that care. From ESG managers to CEOs, these individuals are solution-minded, capable of making fast decisions, and focused on implementing impact at scale. When a large-scale crisis occurs and people are forced to flee their homes, they feel the responsibility to act. They are not experts in medical aid, construction or military operations - but they can tap into their businesses to deliver much-needed supplies, services and infrastructure quickly. When people are suddenly forced from home due to large-scale disasters, we call on our collective responsibility to help as many people as possible as quickly as possible - regardless of their nationality or background. We focus our eorts on the people that might otherwise be missed or fall behind. We pay special attention to young people and their families, directly asking them about their needs. United in our eorts, we aim to bring back humanity in crisis response.
