Founded in 2018, the ITTF Foundation was created by the International Table Tennis Federation as an independent nonprofit organization. The Foundation aims to create positive impacts through table tennis in communities worldwide. The ITTF Foundation operates through five programs to foster development through table tennis, contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The team tirelessly designs and implements initiatives that promote inclusivity, education, and empowerment, ensuring that the sport becomes a catalyst for positive social change. As a nonprofit organization we collaborate closely with local project implementation partners while we assist with planning, financial support, and knowledge sharing. Additionally, we connect with the Parkinson's community globally to promote the use of table tennis for enhancing well-being and health, particularly against neurodegenerative diseases.
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.
Our mission is to empower individuals and promote social inclusion, ensuring that no one is left behind in the pursuit of a better life.

We believe no child should be part of war. Ever. Children have the right to grow up in peace, free from fear and violence. To develop their full potential and become the person they want to be. War Child is committed to improve life of hundreds of thousands children in conflicted areas. War Child helps them to process their intense experiences, dare to reconnect with other children again and build self-confidence. They ensure that they learn how to read, write, count and learn a trade. Besides that, they create a safe environment where children can build a stable and above all, peaceful future. War Child does this worldwide. From Colombia to Afghanistan. Not because they like it that much. But because children are entitled to it. That is why they offer psychosocial support, education and protection to refugee and vulnerable children in fourteen countries. Because every child is entitled to a place where they can play safely, learn and recover from all misery.

Points cles du programme ASI au Congo et au Gabon ASI travaille depuis 40 ans en Afrique : Burkina- Faso, ex Zaire devenu la RDC, Cameroun. Les nombreux projets menes dans ces pays sont devenus autonomes et leurs activites continuent a travers des equipes a 100% locales qui ont pris le relais d'ASI. ASI a cependant conserve le management direct du programme le plus important. Celui-ci, initie en 2007 a Brazzaville au Congo, puis a Pointe-Noire (2012), et tout recemment ouvert a Libreville au Gabon, vise a former et reinserer socialement et professionnellement les jeunes filles mineures en situation de prostitution de survie en rue. Appuye par des subventions institutionnelles (ONU, AFD, Mairie de Paris) ainsi que par des subventions privees (Fondation SODEXO, Groupe Air France, TotalEnergies, Groupe Perenco ), ASI a pu developper ses programmes dans la duree (Annexe 1). Le management de ce programme complexe est assure par les 12 membres du CA d'ASI, aux profils varies et bases en France et aux USA (Annexe 2), definissant et deployant une Gouvernance stricte (Annexe 3). Les membres du CA sont strictement benevoles et assument leurs eventuels frais induits (visites au Congo, repas et deplacements lors d'un CA). La totalite des fonds recueillis aupres de nos partenaires sont ainsi dedies a nos beneficiaires et aux personnels locaux des 5 centres, actuellement 70 personnes. Le pilotage courant est assure par un Bureau de 4 personnes, qui anime au quotidien le DG local du programme et son Adjointe chargee principalement de la RH et des Partenariats. ASI travaille avec nombre d'autres ONG (agissant dans d'autres registres) mais aussi des entites etatiques ou locales (Mairies, Service de sante et de l'Action Sociale, prefecture, police, congregations). Ce processus en reseau apporte des synergies economiques mais aussi humaines, ferments d'une reussite collective. ~20% des beneficiaires sont d'ailleurs signalees par d'autres acteurs que nos propres equipes de maraude . ASI est l'unique entite (ONG ou etatique) assurant une telle mission dans les deux pays. Au fil des annees, ASI a su organiser et piloter un reseau de prise en charge de ces jeunes filles via un processus innovant de maraudes pour les identifier. ~80% choisissent de rejoindre le programme des que nous sommes (financierement) en mesure de le leur proposer. Un projet personnalise est ensuite construit, sur une base individuelle, volontaire et formalisee par un Contrat , typiquement de 3 ans, a l'issue duquel la beneficiaire est en position de gagner sa vie dignement. Dans une premiere etape, la reponse aux besoins essentiels en termes de nourriture, sante et contraception, de soutien aux enfants de ces beneficiaires (plus d'une sur deux sont mamans), parfois de remise a niveau scolaire de base (lire, ecrire, compter) est apportee. Un programme complet de reinsertion personnelle puis de formation professionnalisante est ensuite defini avec chaque beneficiaire. Les principales etapes a suivre et les engagements personnels pris sur une base volontaire par la beneficiaire sont materialises via un Contrat signe avec ASI, de facon a la responsabiliser pleinement, et pouvoir piloter avec elle tout ecart eventuel de facon formelle, objective et transparente. Les formations et projets d'insertion sont adaptes aux realites du Congo et du Gabon. Initialement classiques (couture, cuisine, coiffure), elles sont regulierement enrichies, tels les metiers de mecanicienne, technicienne de climatisation ou encore soudeuse. Plus recemment, une formation de base en bureautique et anglais a ete introduite, offrant aux beneficiaires un nouveau debouche professionnel potentiel, les entreprises trouvant difficilement des profils adequats pour ces postes. Enfin, un projet de creation d'une ferme productrice d'epices, produits a forte valeur ajoutee et exportables, est en cours de lancement a Dolisie. Le processus ASI a ete regulierement optimise et adapte aux realites du terrain au cours des annees. Une description detaillee est disponible. L'activite d'ASI a ete en progression constante. De 10-15 reinsertions de beneficiaires par an dans les premieres annees, les resultats du programme ont regulierement cru jusqu'a atteindre 52 sorties reussies en 2024 des centres de Brazzaville et Pointe-Noire. Depuis son demarrage en 2007, ASI a accueilli ~3700 beneficiaires, qui se sont reinserees et gagnent desormais leur vie dignement. Les resultats sont probants avec ~85 % d'insertion reussie avec un travail stable et correctement remunere. S'y ajoutent ~10% de beneficiaires reinserees socialement mais sans avoir trouve ou pris un travail. En 2024, les centres ASI ont accueilli en moyenne quotidienne 190 beneficiaires et 84 jeunes enfants dans les creches. En outre, plus de 794 autres jeunes filles ont ete aidees ou secourues en rue, hors centres (protection contre de la violence, repas, soins et conseils medicaux). Par ailleurs, pour mieux repondre aux besoins identifies par ASI lors des maraudes, trois nouveaux centres ont ete ouverts courant 2024 dans les villes de Dolisie et NKayi au CONGO, ainsi qu'a Libreville au GABON
