Summary: Provide up to 100 books and other educational resources for a library serving a disproportionate share of underprivileged children in Tijuana, Mexico.

1) Tijuana, Mexico Library Project

The Rotary Club of Chula Vista's International Projects Committee will provide books and educational resources for a library serving a disproportionate share of underprivileged children in Tijuana, Mexico. The Club will provide up to 100 children's books selected by the library to be available to children in the equivalent of grades K-3, attending schools serving low-income students. Beyond books the Chula Vista Rotary Club will also purchase additional educational resources, including a computer. This program has been very well-received by Rotarians in Tijuana and by Tijuana community leaders. In 2011, at the Ignacio Zaragoza Library in Tijuana, Rotarians from the Rotary Club of Tijuana and the Secretary of Education for the City of Tijuana met volunteers from the Chula Vista Rotary Club (photos attached). We delivered the books and resources, along with a plaque that read:
