Mission: Develop innovative and effective programs that, through playful and meaningful strategies, seek to prevent the violation of the rights of children and adolescents. We focus on critical issues such as psychoactive substance use, bullying, sexual abuse, teenage pregnancy, child abuse and suicide attempts. Additionally, our mission includes active participation in cultural and artistic programs, promoting community education in rights and collaborating in the prevention of crimes that affect families. For 20 years, our Foundation has worked to benefit the families of women who are dedicated to prostitution. Initially, we focused on taking care of the children of these mothers who worked in bars. With the arrival of the pandemic, we adapted our approach towards arts and crafts training for mothers, which gave rise to the brand "Lola Montez", known as "the brand of second chances." In 2024, we plan to consolidate all our efforts under the "El Refugio de las Lolas" project, and other related programs, not only training women in various trades, but also offering comprehensive support to their young children and adolescents, who face dangers of addiction and microtrafficking. This project reflects our experience and commitment to these families, allowing us to effectively address their needs and perfectly aligning our initiatives with our historic mission.
We contribute to the strengthening and restoration of family relationships, contributing socially to the formation of confident, joyful, proactive and committed citizens with society, the country and the world, based on the foundation of love.

Our mission is to be the guiding light that develops, connects, concentrates and propagates STEM Education exponentially in Latin America. STEM is a global trend that promotes the teaching of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics as pillars for sustainable development and social well-being, developing scientific and mathematical thinking with a focus on innovation. STEM recognizes that creativity and the development of socio-emotional skills are key to promoting an involved and globally responsible citizenship, that is why it encourages interaction with other disciplines such as the arts, business, philosophy or humanities: STEAM / STEAM + H / STEM + E, among others. STEM proposes learning based on problem solving and develops future skills with a social and inclusive vision. Movimiento STEM+ is the civil association that inspires and engages key actors to promote high-impact STEM Education initiatives in order to close gaps and solve the great challenges of humanity. It is the highest representative body of the Ecosistema STEM+ and an initiative endorsed by Global STEM Alliance and STEM Learning Ecosystems. We have impacted more than 9 million people in the region.

The organisation reflects its members' shared concern for the future of humanity and the planet. The association sees its task as acting as an independent, global catalyst for change. The objectives of the Association are therefore: to identify the key issues that are critical to the future of humanity; to evaluate alternative scenarios for the future and assess risks, choices and opportunities through integrated and forward-looking analyses; to develop and propose practical solutions to the identified challenges; to communicate new insights and knowledge from these analyses to decision-makers in the public and private sectors, as well as to the wider public; to stimulate public debate and effective action to improve the prospects for the future of humanity and the planet. The Association's activities are guided by the following three complementary principles: 1. the need to adopt a global, systems-oriented perspective in analysing the problems facing the modern world, recognising that the increasing interdependence of nations and the globalisation of previously local problems create challenges that are beyond the capacity of individual countries. 2. the need for a comprehensive, holistic approach in order to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity and interconnectedness of both current problems and practical solutions, in political, social, economic, technological, environmental, psychological and cultural terms, which the association refers to as the 'world problematique'. 3. the need to emphasise transdisciplinary and long-term perspectives, which are all too often neglected by governments and other decision-makers, and to focus on those decisions, strategies and measures that will determine the fate of present and future generations. The aim is to arouse public interest and provide responsible decision-makers with a solid basis for formulating and implementing future-oriented measures. The association does not pursue any commercial purposes and does not seek to make a profit.
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.
