Hospital Infantil de las Californias

Link

The Hospital Infantil de Las Californias, I.B.P. (HIC) was established in 1994 in the City of Tijuana, BC, Mexico, to improve the health and nutrition of the children of the U.S.-Mexico border region, Southern California and Mexico. The Hospital Infantil is an excellent example of a Mexican border nonprofit that has been able to successfully leverage funding from both Mexican and U.S. corporations through their “Marca con Causa” (Branding for a Cause) program by allowing a corporation to brand name a hospital facility or a program when they provide the significant amount of financial assistance needed to complete the facility or jump-start the program.
