Donate WLF – Where the foundation was started in Australia, the goal is geared towards closing the gap of literacy between Indigenous and non-Indigenous children. For indigenous people illiteracy rates are a more prominent problem. To improve skills such as reading and number skills, the World Literacy Foundation has developed a program called the Indigenous Learning App. This app contains multilingual e-books and multiple literacy games in not just English but also the local dialect in Australia.[6] In the African sect with headquarters in Uganda, where many people live in poverty and have no electricity the World Literacy Foundation has donated solar powered tablets. Paired with the Sun Books initiative the World Literacy Foundation is not just donating recourses but also training to teachers at the primary school level on how to use these resources effectively. The solar powered tablets come preloaded with digital learning content and multilingual e-books. In Uganda only roughly 27% of people have access to electricity and the cost of one book can be a whole month’s salary. These Sun Books are useful in the sense that they do not need to be electrically charged and are universal tools, coming loaded with multiple uses.[7] Several years ago, the World Literacy Foundation founded their South America sect in Manizales, Colombia. Latin America is in dire need of educational reform, over 35 million people over the age of 15 are illiterate. Here it is only expected that children attend school for 6 years compared to the traditional 12 most other countries require. To help improve these statistics the World Literacy Foundation runs two classes a week for over 60 children and other community members. During beneficial classes the World Literacy Foundation supports learners of all ages with tutoring and reading services.[7] In the United Kingdom illiteracy costs the UK’s economy roughly $50 billion USD a year. It is here the World Literacy Foundation has run 26 fundraising projects, book distribution drives and provides numerous services. To help combat illiteracy the World literacy Foundation provides services such as parent mentoring, tutoring services, delivering literacy recourses, and distributes multilingual children/baby books. In the UK the World Literacy Foundation also has made a pack to new mothers to whom English would not be their first language to improve literacy and help them improve their standard of life.[7] Even in the United States of America there is a literacy crisis. This gap can be measured by 30 million words, and this stretches from learners who live in poverty to those who are afforded the best education money can buy. Although it is not just the socioeconomics that divide America’s literate, literacy rates also greatly range between racial groups. To support American learners the World Literacy Foundation has encouraged 150 schools to participate in International literacy Day. In February 2019 a project called Michigan Reads debuted; this is an initiative to provide tutoring and literacy resources to children from all backgrounds in Michigan. In America there are also over 60 Youth Ambassadors who promote literacy in their schools and communities.[7] Global projects The World Literacy Foundation hosts several global projects a year. The most popular being the International Day of Literacy.

¡Conoce a Esther!

Los grandes ojos marrones de Esther, de diez años, se iluminan cuando habla del programa Aprendo Leyendo. “¡Disfruto venir todas las semanas porque la señorita Paulina nos enseña a leer y escribir!” dice con entusiasmo.

En muchos sentidos, Esther es como la mayoría de las niñas. Le encanta usar ropa rosa y la fantasía de los cuentos de hadas y los unicornios. Pero su vida no es fácil. Vive con 15 familiares en una pequeña casa de bambú y concreto en el humilde barrio de El Carmen en Manizales, Colombia. Tres generaciones abarrotan la casa de dos niveles, y las habitaciones están divididas por cortinas en lugar de paredes.

Esther y sus cuatro hermanos son criados solo por su madre, soltera de 60 años, Melinda, quien trabaja de lunes a sábado limpiando casas para proporcionar lo básico a su familia. A pesar de todo, su familia es unida y saca lo mejor de la vida porque no tienen otra opción.

Esther está en tercer grado y va a una escuela pública. Aunque está financiada por el gobierno, los recursos son muy limitados y la calidad de la educación es extremadamente baja. Durante el 2020, la escuela ha estado cerrada durante meses.

Afortunadamente, Esther ha podido seguir asistiendo al programa Aprende Leyendo todas las semanas desde que tenía seis años con su hermano menor, Ángel Fabián. El programa ha sido un recurso vital para que sigan aprendiendo durante los cierres escolares.

La encargada del programa, Paula Correa, ayudó a instalar la sala de lectura en un centro comunitario local en 2014 para brindarles a los niños desfavorecidos del barrio El Carmen acceso a libros, tutoría y ayudar a mejorar su lectura.

Como muchos otros niños que enfrentan la pobreza y las dificultades en Colombia, Esther no tenía libros en casa. Aprende Leyendo y la World Literacy Foundation donaron comida, ropa y libros a su familia, para que Esther también puede leer en casa.

Esther quiere ser policía cuando crezca para cuidar de la gente de su comunidad. Creemos que su sueño se hará realidad porque el don de la alfabetización abre infinitas posibilidades para los niños necesitados.

Gracias a su apoyo podemos ayudar a los niños desfavorecidos en América Latina brindándoles recursos educativos de calidad y apoyo para cambiar su futuro y romper su ciclo de pobreza.

¡Juntos podemos cambiar la vida de Esther!

Sin una intervención eficaz, los niños como Esther simplemente corren un alto riesgo de convertirse en analfabetos funcionales. Debemos priorizar las necesidades de quienes se encuentran en una condición desfavorecida para garantizar una educación gratuita e inclusiva para todos.
