What is Giving Tuesday

It’s a global generosity movement that unleashes the power of radical generosity.
It was created in 2012 to encourage people to do good, and since then has grown into an annual global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.  

When is Giving Tuesday this year?

This year, Giving Tuesday will be held on November 29th, 2022.

Why you should choose World Literacy Foundation as your charitable organization.

World Literacy Foundation is an international charitable organization operating in USA, Canada, Latin America, United Kingdom, Europe, Africa, and Australia. We are on a mission to ensure that all children, regardless of their geographic location, have the opportunity to acquire literacy skills, and books to reach their full potential.

“I tie my pencil around my neck, so that I don’t lose it. If I lose my pencil, I don’t know if I’ll get another one.”
Joseph, Age 10

For many kids like Joseph, this is their reality, but it doesn’t have to be. With your help, we can provide books, pencils, and educational resources to children in your region, and across the globe.

Let’s change the world, one pencil at a time.

Together we can end illiteracy and create a better world for many generations to come.

We are currently in a global learning crisis. There are 700 million people worldwide who are unable to read a simple text and write their own name. In the U.S. reading test scores have plummeted even more as a result of Covid-19. We can end illiteracy and create a better future for our children, but it will take all of us working together.

Here are a few ways to participate in Giving Tuesday this giving season, including:

1. Making a donation
2. Creating a fundraiser
3. Sponsoring a child monthly

As a World Literacy Foundation supporter, you can help us reach vulnerable children, and families in your region, and around the world.
