Basic Education & Literacy
Our goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy. This is a problem in our own backyards, too. The adult literacy rate is 81%, with 19% of adults lacking basic prose literacy skills. Did you know that 4.8 million Texas adults are in need of adult education? Our goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy. We support education for all children and literacy for children and adults.
