EDUCATION

Education covers many aspects of life from math, science, and language classes taken in school to education around social issues, health, global, and economic issues. Literacy is a bridge to the success of families, communities and countries.  Without this, other sorts of education are almost impossible. Studies have shown that a lack of education contributes to lower infant mortality, lower birth rates, spread of disease and much more. Conversely, those communities where education is a priority have less poverty and spread of disease, as well as a greater sense of purpose and more hope.
