Art to Healing Limited

Art to Healing's mission is to support the recovery of child sex slaves, and women and children who have experienced sex trafficking, and exploitation in Asia with trauma-informed care and mental health support so that the cycle of sex slavery ends. We believe that this care is vital if women and girls are to recover from their traumatic pasts, build resilience and imagine new possibilities for their lives, that is free from fear, abuse, and exploitation. Without the effective care and support of a trained trauma-informed professional, community support and a solid foundation of safety, women, and girls frequently return to sex slavery.

We pursue this mission through integrated, holistic commitment, working closely with children, families, communities, local authorities. We make sure that each one of them are interviewed and committed from design to fulfilment in our development programmes. Empowered step by step during the ten to fifteen years of a programme, we empower them to set their own goals, settle autonomy and pass on skills and knowledge in a sustainable and community-based outlook.

It benefits from the 70 years of experience of World Vision, first child sponsorship NGO and first Clean water humanitarian provider in the world, operating in 99 countries with offices in 85 of them.

Japan Heart, as one of the most reliable and promising international medical organizations, will never stop evolving in order to help bring everyone's invaluable life into a brilliant future. -We celebrate every encountering as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to share the moment, and thus commit ourselves to provide an excellent hospitality, through which all involved will find happiness and contentment. -We sincerely listen to our caring instinct, and serve the disadvantaged who do not have access to medical care, with no discrimination by nationality, race, politics, religion, or circumstance. -We do not measure our lives in terms of money, status, or fame. Instead, we act on what we believe is truly valuable; trust, compassion/consideration, appreciation, courtesy/moderation, and wisdom. -Japan Heart's initiatives and actions represent a project, where experienced individuals, and young people who possess capabilities and potential, collaborate to generate trends of the time, and create cultural and historical values. -We shall acknowledge and respect who each of us is, believe in ourselves, and keep challenging ourselves for self-realization and social welfare. -We must sincerely and deeply study our history, and try to live for the moment to the fullest while looking ahead to the future, so that we can contribute to social well-being both at home and abroad. -In order to become the best international medical professionals, we shall keep our minds and bodies clean, never fail to pay careful attention to everyday life, understand that serving is our natural duty, do our best without ego and arrogance, and continue to improve ourselves day by day. -'Quality' is the most crucial value for us.

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.
