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.

En La Poderosa, el cambio lo lideran las personas mas afectadas por la exclusion. Todas las iniciativas son disenadas, implementadas y evaluadas por los propios residentes. No prestamos servicios, sino que desarrollamos capacidades para que las comunidades sean plenamente duenas de sus soluciones. Nuestros valores guian la forma en que nos organizamos, decidimos y actuamos: Las asambleas vecinales autogestionadas impulsan todas las decisiones. Los miembros de la comunidad hablan por si mismos, como portavoces, promotores de salud o fundadores de cooperativas. En toda America Latina, vecinos y voluntarios se unen para defender los derechos y mejorar la vida cotidiana. La solidaridad y el respeto impulsan todo, desde comedores populares hasta centros culturales, cooperativas y escuelas. La Poderosa es un laboratorio de alternativas construidas por la comunidad. Desde cooperativas de economia solidaria hasta presupuestos participativos, estamos probando modelos que desafian los sistemas extractivos y reimaginan como se puede organizar la sociedad.
