famed literacy program. Frank Laubach was sponsored to go to many

their styles of speech with the goal of providing an alphabet for
each tribe or nation. Then he would train teachers or leaders who
soon taught their people how to read. He was known as "Apostle to

and intellectual, he spent 40 years of his life empowering millions
of the poorest, disenfranchised people in third world countries.

2012 Reprint of 1960 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original
edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Frank
Charles Laubach was an Evangelical Christian missionary and mystic
known as "The Apostle to the Illiterates." In 1935, while working
at a remote location in the Philippines, he developed the "Each One
Teach One" literacy program. It has been used to teach about 60
million people to read in their own language.] He was deeply
concerned about poverty, injustice and illiteracy, and considered
them barriers to peace in the world. In 1955, he founded Laubach
Literacy, which helped introduce about 150,000 Americans to reading
each year and had grown to embrace 34 developing countries. An
estimated 2.7 million people worldwide were learning to read
through Laubach-affiliated programs. In 2002, this group merged
with Literacy Volunteers of America, Inc. to form ProLiteracy
Worldwide.
