The Del Mar-Solana Beach Rotary Club recently delivered 30 dictionaries to Casa de Amistad for its adult literacy class held at the Solana Beach Presbyterian Church.  In this program, adults learn English as a second language and also commit to provide a minimum of one hour of daily homework support to their children in English.  As a result, both the adults and their children will benefit from the dictionaries.
