"When
the children of our world die needlessly and without
hope, a piece of us dies with them whether we know
it or not. And when we help just one to live, we
find a small piece of immeasurable, indescribable
joy."
--Mark A. Kroeker Founder, WCTF
Welcome to WCTF.org
The World Children's Transplant Fund
(WCTF), is a nongovernmental, nonprofit organization dedicated to
the development of pediatric transplantation around the world. Lack of financing for the transplant
operations, and especially for post-operation treatment, is one
of the major problems in every country.
What WCTF Does
Raises funds to establish
pediatric transplant centers in the countries that do not have them.
Helps the existing transplant centers finance operations on children.
Helps purchase necessary equipment and drugs for the transplant
hospitals.
Helps organize appropriate training for the transplant surgeons and
coordinators.
Helps organize organ donation campaigns.
Our mission is to provide
the opportunity for life-saving organ transplants to children of the
world. Now, we need your support to help these many children. Costs vary
as each transplantation is unique. Minimally, however, a family trying
to save the life of their child is looking at an immense financial
burden.
You Can Help!
As we move further into the 21st century, we
are looking forward to the day when the opportunity for life-saving
organ transplants to children of the world is the norm, not the
exception. This requires your help. Your kindness will be remembered in the
smile of a child. Please donate or
volunteer.
