On May 24th we gathered to celebrate LitWorld’s impact around the globe at our World of Stories Gala. With the support of new and long-time friends of LitWorld, we will continue to partner with local, grassroots organizations here and around the globe to deliver transformational programs in joyful, safe spaces where kids and communities shape the world with their stories.
Our Impact
What LitKids Are Saying:
"What I like about LitClub is we are taught how to believe in ourselves and be kind to others... I always feel wanted and loved by other members in my LitClub."
- Ruth
Kenya Connect, Kenya
"Joining LitClub has been the best decision I ever made... I did not dare to express my ideas and I felt invisible in the classroom... LitClub has given me the opportunity to make new friends and establish a good relationship with our Mentor."
- Scarleth
Fabretto, Nicaragua
"I'm at my happiest in LitClub because I know that I have a voice. Everyone can hear me and listen to my story."
- Princess
Project PEARLS, Philippines
"In my community, not all girls are studying. That worries me because sometimes when they're not studying, they become young mothers. But today, I'm a part of LitWorld and I'm sure that I can help other girls raise their voices."
- Allison
Un Mundo, Honduras
"LitClubs are the best thing my family and I have ever experienced. LitClub changed a lot of things in our lives, giving us a bright future. It’s the best club ever."
- Desmond
Art of a Child, Uganda
