A nonprofit in San Diego improves the lives of the poor in nearby Tijuana.

Correspondent Lucky  Severson reports on Paula Claussen of San Diego, who decided to build houses for the poorest families in nearby Tijuana. She recruited volunteers, and together they have built nearly 1300 simple, sturdy homes—sometimes as many as 44 in one day. They call their work Project Mercy.
