The Rotary Club of Hermosa Beach

The Water and Sanitation Rotary Action Group (WASRAG) reminds us: The International World Water Day is held annually on 22 March as a means of focusing attention on the importance of freshwater and advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources. An international day to celebrate freshwater was recommended at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED). The United Nations General Assembly responded by designating 22 March 1993 a...s the first World Water Day. https://fb.watch/4oBHU2N3nK/

Over 750 million people in the world lack access to safe water and more than 2.5 billion people lack access to adequate sanitation facilities. At least 3,000 children die each day from diarrheal diseases caused by unsafe water. Rotary's projects give communities the ability to develop and maintain sustainable water and sanitation systems and support studies related to water and sanitation.

An ultimate Rotarian active throughout the South Bay for over 70 years, we are profoundly sad to learn of the passing of Bob Peterson on Friday, March 5. His passing leaves a big legacy for us to honor in our service.

Congratulations Abby & Ian - HVS February Students of the Month!
