Save 1 million lives

DTI Community, along with DTI Foundation, have the mission of saving lives. At DTI (Donation and Transplantation Institute), we believe in the power of education, respect, diversity, and transparency. Our way of doing this is by promoting knowledge transfer through our training courses to have more competent professionals specialized on organ donation and transplantation.

Our main goal is - through our project on GlobalGiving, Save 1 Million Lives - to facilitate access to practices and training related to organ donation and transplantation and help healthcare professionals who find themselves in developing countries. With the main goal of raising $50.000 to ensure that under-resourced countries in Asia, Central and South America, and Africa can be trained and receive help to develop organ donation and transplantation processes and protocols.

Through the project on GlobalGiving, Save 1 Million Lives, DTI Foundation has been able to grant various scholarships to healthcare professionals from all over the world. In doing so, we have created amazing relationships and a strong network of friends, alumni and volunteers all inspired to save lives.

The money that has been raised since our last report hasn’t been enough to give more grants, however we keep helping and supporting those who have been helped previously and willing to help more people once we have raised more money.

For now we are helping two doctors from Vietnam: Dr. Nhieu, from the Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit at Cho Ray Hospital, in Ho Chi Mihn; and Dr. Linh, also from Ho Chi Mihn, from the Intensive Care Unit.
