Caitlin, a volunteer from the UK, travelled to Colombia with a powerful belief: education is a flexible journey that should be accessible to every child, regardless of their background. "Learning is a journey and with the right support, everyone can achieve their dreams."

At the WLF, we support families around the world to make reading a daily habit, opening doors to opportunity, connection, and brighter futures. From the first bedtime story to independent reading, books help children imagine what’s possible, and believe in themselves.

When school lets out for the holidays, reading often stops too. The fix is simple: 15 minutes of reading a day. A chapter before bed. A picture book at breakfast. But that only works if kids have books to read, Donate here → worldliteracyfoundation.org/donate/

Worldwide, 250 million children can't read a simple sentence. Most come from disadvantaged communities where they sit in classrooms without textbooks. Your support puts books, teachers, and programs in the hands of children who need them most → worldliteracyfoundation.org/donate/
