Our vision: Our vision is a world where animals live free of suffering. With your help we can move the world for animals. We're World Animal Protection. We're on a mission to end animal cruelty and suffering. Forever. Evidence shows that animals are sentient, individual beings who feel pain, fear, and joy. Yet, every day, billions of them experience unbearable cruelty. Putting animals first isn't just better for them, it's vital for us and for our shared planet. Find out what we can do, with your support, to end the cruelty and exploitation of farmed and wild animals. Together, we can transform the lives of animals across the world.
Hospices of Hope's mission is to improve the quality of life for patients in South East Europe who are suffering from a terminal or life-limiting illness through increasing access to palliative care services and palliative care education. Palliative care aims to address the physical, emotional, spirtual and social needs of the patient and give support and guidance to their family members. We fulfil our mission by working with our in-country partner organisations in Romania, Serbia, Albania, Moldova, Greece and Ukraine (which together make up the Hospices of Hope Network) and supporting the training of health care professionals throughout Central and Eastern Europe. All care is provided free of charge to patients and their families. The four main pillars of our work are: 1) advocacy, for example lobbying governments to provide more resources and funding for palliative care and changing legislation where necessary, 2) technical expertise, for example providing expert advice on all aspects of fundraising or hospice buildings, 3) training, for example providing volunteer expert trainers from the UK or USA to help train local staff and 4) providing funding to help grow and develop palliative care services and education. We always aim to provide models of care that can be replicated in other cities or countries in the region, for example in Romania, our hospice was the only one for 10 years, but through our educational initiatives, there are now more than 100 functioning palliative care organisations in the country.

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.

For 25 years, our work in Albania has focused on long-term development and support for children, youth and families in need. Our work has impacted the lives of 121,411 children and youth in 31 municipalities. We support and work to empower children, youth, families and communities in need. Social protection and inclusion, youth activism and life skills, as well as economic development opportunities for families in need are the focus of our work. World Vision is committed to bringing about sustainable change and increasing well-being for children and families in Albania. The participation of children and youth is at the heart of World Vision Albania's programs. More than simply creating space for them to express their ideas, participation means listening to them, engaging in meaningful dialogue with them, paying attention to their views, and taking action to address their concerns. Aiming to create an empowering environment that inspires and motivates children and youth, while designing better policies and programs to meet their needs, World Vision Albania is constantly proactive in taking actions to engage in constructive and ongoing dialogue with them, whether at the local or national level. For two years, World Vision Albania has had a Youth Advisory Board, which serves as a platform to express the needs, challenges, and vision of children and young people for their future and the country's.
