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 in order to have more competent professionals specializing in 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 GlobalGiving, Save 1 Million Lives project, 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 in the last six months has been granted to two students in the form of scholarships. One of the scholarship recipients resides in the Philippines while the other resides in Yemen. The scholarships were provided in order for the students to take the 27th Edition of the TPM Advanced International Training Course in Transplant Procurement Management. This course allows students to get involved with organ and tissue donation and transplantation at an international level.
