The Dillon Foundation acquired over eight-hundred books for the Cabo San Lucas Library. All of these books are in Spanish. This brings the total number of books donated by the Dillon Foundation to the Cabo San Lucas Library to over sixteen-hundred.

This is just another example of how the Dillon Foundation tries to make a difference.

Pictured to the right is that of a local elementary school in Cabo San Lucas. This is just one of numerous places where the Dillon Foundation directs a portion of charter proceeds. In early December, the children of this school were the happy recipients of a new computer.

El Budster owners Jim Dillon and Salvador Nunez Ocampo loading up medical supplies at the Los Cabos International Airport. These supplies were brought from San Diego. The wheelchair will help a twenty-six year old single parent (Rozio) who was hit by a drunk driver on her way to work.

She may never walk again, but this donated wheelchair will make her life a lot better.

This is just one of the many humanitarian projects that the El Budster owners are invlolved in throughout Baja California.

This is just another example of people who care about helping the people of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The books were purchased in Tijuana and in Mexico City, then shipped to Cabo San Lucas.

Here are Jim Dillon and Salvador at the Biblioteca (Library) in Cabo San Lucas donating books. Over 600 books have now been donated by the Dillon Foundation to libraries in Cabo San Lucas. The efforts of the fishing charters have made this all possible.
