The World Transplant Games Federation

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.

AMIGOS DEL BOSQUE, OBC

Amigos del Bosque is dedicated to preserving and restoring tropical rainforest and biodiversity in ways that enhance the sustainability and quality-of-life of rural forest-edge communities in the upper Mamoni River valley, a 500-person valley in the Republic of Panama that is among the Top 25 most biodiverse areas in the world. To that end, we focus both on direct conservation (including payment for carbon sequestration, land purchase, and research & monitoring) and on investment in people and in the community (including sustainable economic opportunity, environmental & sustainability education, and enabling infrastructure). We expect to evolve based on what we see in the valley vis-a-vis rates of deforestation, biodiversity, water and air quality, and the input and feedback we receive from our neighbors. We are an embedded, community-centric, and collaborative effort to amplify and energize the pre-existing desire to flourish with the land.
