This project is a project of Serving Hands International

Children in the poor colonias in the eastern region of Tijuana often have to walk miles over rough terrain to attend school. We are requesting funds to purchase back packs for these children to carry their books and supplies in. This is to assist them in getting an education which can lead to a better way of life.
