The World Literacy Foundation are looking for volunteers aged 14-24 to be global ambassadors for literacy and education!

The WLF Youth Ambassador Program is a unique youth leadership development opportunity for those who are ready to join an international movement and become a positive advocate for literacy in 2019. The six-month online training program aims to bring together young individuals from all over the world to:

  • Develop their leadership and advocacy skills
  • Be a local voice for literacy and education in their community
  • Be a local fundraiser to make an impact in the education of children in Gulu-Uganda
Throughout the program, you will receive undivided support from the Youth Ambassador Coordinator, monthly learning modules to educate you on literacy, education, leadership, advocacy and fundraising, and the opportunity to network with 300+ other Youth Ambassadors from around the world. In return for your commitment, you will receive a certificate of completion, an opportunity to attend and present at the World Literacy Summit 2020, and the satisfaction of knowing you have helped to eradicate illiteracy rates in impoverished communities. This is not only an amazing opportunity to give back to children in need, it is also a chance to build valuable skills, gain valuable CV experience and act as a voice of change within your local community.

Mission Statement

The World Literacy Foundation is a USA registered independent charitable organization 501(c)(3). Our primary objective is to address the growing rate of illiteracy in disadvantaged communities, specifically among children from low income backgrounds. We believe that reading in the early years is vital to unlocking the door to a life of learning and overcoming poverty. Through our programs, at-risk children are getting the support they desperately need to not only learn to read, but build confidence and believe in their ability to succeed at school and in life. The World Literacy Foundation is also committed to raising awareness of the literacy challenges facing the world to help galvanize actions and initiatives that will improve global literacy standards.
