The Rincon Rotary and Tucson Commercial Carpet take the Ocotillo Early Learning Center on a magic carpet ride.

You don't know who we might help,
Why don't you join with Rotary dear friends,
On a magic carpet ride.

Stefanie Gonzales at the Ocotillo Early Learning Center asked for a larger carpet to facilitate large group activities to maximize learning. Using connections within the community, Rotarian Wendy Hobbs secured a donation from Tucson Commercial Carpet to help Ms. Gonzales' class.

Rincon Rotary's support is part of its Rotary LOCAL program, whose mission is to help improve the local community through educational outreach. Rotary LOCAL can provide manpower, resources from local business partners, or in some cases, direct financial support to teachers who apply for assistance.
