As a response to the fact that, worldwide, at least 793 million people remain illiterate (two-thirds of them being women), (LitWorld ) was founded in 2008 to cultivate global literacy leaders through transformational literacy experiences that build connection, understanding, resilience and strength. LitWorld programs are designed to build self-confidence, promote leadership, and strengthen children and their communities. LitWorld's LitClub and LitCamp programs cultivate a new generation of leaders, storytellers and academic achievers, effecting change for themselves, their community, and their world. LitWorld programs are currently running in the United States, the Philippines,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://readphilippines.com/Forum/march-7-is-world-read-aloud-day-nbdb,-litworld--t767.html )〕 Iraq, Israel, Kenya, and Ghana.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Current Projects )〕 LitWorld’s work centers on three pillars: Education, Advocacy, and Innovation. In 2010, LitWorld established World Read Aloud Day, an advocacy day that asserts the right to read and write for all people. World Read Aloud Day has reached people in 65 countries and all 50 states. In 2011, LitWorld launched Stand Up for Girls, a worldwide rally in recognition of the International Day of the Girl.
