These women face many difficulties, such as failing to keep their children safe because they can’t read warning labels, debt piling up because they can’t understand the bad contracts they sign and being cheated in the market place because they can’t do basic math. Worst of all – they can’t read the life giving messages found in the Bible.
Even if they want to read, there is no way to learn . . . until now. With your help, women in Asia can learn to read and will be equipped to tackle life’s hurdles.
Her family trapped in poverty, Asha grew up without her most basic needs. Yet still she faithfully went to school —until her teacher beat her for not having enough paper to complete her assignment. She never went back. It wasn't until she attended GFA-supported literacy training classes that she was able finish learning to read and write. See the difference being made in the lives of other women like Asha.
You can bring these poor women the hope found only in Jesus by teaching them to read.
Your gift to the GFA World Women’s Literacy Fund will enable women to read and study God's Word on their own, protect their families and learn some of life's most basic lessons.
The literacy book is full of Scripture and moral lessons that women will embrace as they learn to read for the first time.
Basic math skills are taught as women go through this course, so now they will get fair prices in the market places.
These women are able to provide for their families in ways they couldn’t before: tutoring their children, protecting from harm, and teaching them God’s Word.
Another way to give is through a MyGFA campaign. This is a great way that you can raise funds for women's literacy! It gives you an opportunity to tell your friends and family about how the Good News is being shared.
