THIS WEEKEND! Join Rotary for the First Annual “I Rolled a Hippo” Walk for Water! 🦛💦 An inspiring event tackling a global crisis. 12pm Noon Saturday March 22, 2025, Mission Point Park, Davis Bay on Sunshine Coast BC Canada 🇨🇦 Presented by The Rotary Club of the Sunshine Coast and the Rotary Club of Gibsons.

Date: Saturday, March 22

Location: Mission Point Park, Davis Bay

We’ll be walking 6 km carrying water and pushing a Hippo Roller filled with 90 liters, a powerful symbol of the daily struggle millions of people—especially women and children—face just to access clean water. This Rotary-led initiative is raising awareness and funds for Hippo Water Rollers, an innovative tool that makes water collection easier and safer for families in South Africa.

Watch & Share This Powerful Video! Local high school students from the Rotary Interact Clubs of Elphinstone and Chatelech created this inspiring video to help spread awareness about the Walk for Water and the difference we can make together. Their involvement highlights the deep connection between our youth and this global issue. Watch the video here: https://www.facebook.com/share/r/18twRLXhsV/
