Project Description

Country: USA

Location: Naval Base San Diego

Total Budget: $1,000

Area of Focus: Basic education and literacy

Activity Type: Education: Literacy

Summary: Newly chartered Rotary Club of Naval Base San Diego club members will read children's books purchased through Rolling Readers and donate them thereafter at selected elementary school(s) outside the Navy base. Students up to third grade will benefit.


The principal at King Chavez school, a Title One school, indicated her staff wants to focus on literacy to bring the children beyond technology. We will launch reading to the children as soon as we obtain the books from Rolling Readers and continue reading and providing books until they are gone (prior to mid-March 2012). The project funds will be used to purchase age-appropriate children's books, bookplates, and a rubber stamp and ink pad to use on the bookplates.
