More than one in three women in Asia are illiterate—and the statistic holds true for women in Gospel for Asia-supported churches. Their inability to read leaves them vulnerable to those wanting to take advantage of their ignorance, and without reading the Bible, it's a challenge to deepen their knowledge of their Savior.
You can help empower them to care for their families, avoid bad contracts that cause debt, and overcome abusive employers who take advantage of their ignorance through breaking the chains of illiteracy. They’ll also get better prices at the marketplace--just because they can do math. Finally, churches will be strengthened as women are able to read the Bible for the first time.
