BorderLinks has been featured in several publications!

Jerry Gill, PhD, retired professor in Philosophy and Religion at Pima Community College in Tucson and former Academic Director of the BorderLinks Semester on the Border, has written a book entitled BorderLinks II: Still on the Road.
It tells the sequel to BorderLinks, The Road is Made By Walking. Together these books relate BorderLinks history, mission and program. Dr. Gill has refused any compensation and the publishing costs have been donated so that the total income from the sale of the book will support the BorderLinks program. Although the first volume is out of print, the second can be ordered through BorderLinks for $10 plus $3 for shipping and handling.

Selling Social Change: How to Earn Dollars From Your Mission, by Andy Robinson, a nationally known locally based fund raising consultant, features a chapter on BorderLinks and how we have generated over half of our income from the fee we charge for our service. In this age of fund raising for nonprofit organizations, it is the exception that we are able to reduce our dependence on charitable giving by 'selling our product.' The book published by Chardon Press and can be ordered through BorderLinks for $25 plus $3 for shipping and handling.

Lives on the Line; Dispatches from the U.S.-Mexico Border by Miriam Davidson. This book offers an impassioned look at some of the changews that have swept the U.S.-Mexico border. Ms Davidson also shows the positive aspects of change, revealing challenges and opportunities not only for the people who live there but for all Americans. Order the book through BorderLinks for $17 plus $3 for shipping and handling.

Globalization ... at What Price? by Pamela K. Brubaker. This book examines the ways that globalization affects our daily lives and the lives of others, the ethical questions that the global economy raises, and the resources that the Christian faith offers that equip people to work for economic justice. Ms Brubaker is an Associate Professor of Christian Ethics at California Lutheran University. Order the book through BorderLinks for $12 plus $3 for shipping and handling.

The last three of these resources may be purchased through Amazon.com at a reduced price. Part of the purchase price when purchased through BorderLinks supports the BorderLinks program.
