VISION: Rural Sports Foundation has a transformational influence in rural Zambia by creating safe spaces to expand the experience of childhood - play, friends, growth. We inspire youth and provide resources so they can grow up well-informed, making sound decisions that improve their family lives. MISSION: We deliver high-quality programs designed specifically to help adolescents and rural communities thrive. Our foundation is football, sexual reproductive health and rights curriculum, and youth involvement in advocacy for policies that improve access to services. VALUES: Childhood - We allow youth to engage, have fun - smile. We provide knowledge and tools so children grow up slowly, complete their secondary education, and make good choices throughout life. Equal Opportunities - Communities are stronger when women and girls can participate equally with men and boys. Policies are stronger and more sustainable when they include a full range of voices, including youth input. Informed Choices - Wellness includes access to modern health information and resources. The self-confidence to wisely and independently make health choices is essential to well-being. GOALS: To achieve our mission, we sponsor activities in alignment with three of the seventeen U.N.

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 Foundation aims to create positive impacts through table tennis in communities worldwide.

The team tirelessly designs and implements initiatives that promote inclusivity, education, and empowerment, ensuring that the sport becomes a catalyst for positive social change.
