Canadian Rotarian Water Foundation supports the activities of the Water & Sanitation Rotarian Action Group (Wasrag) by providing matching funds for Rotary projects. Wasrag, recognizing the importance of best practices in water and sanitation work, has developed strategic and business plans, focusing our work on areas of most need, building Regional Teams to undertake needs assessments in conjunction with local government, NGOs, and communities, out of which come Wasrag-endorsed project listings. Wasrag's other focus is on sourcing matching funds in addition to those provided by The Rotary Foundation. In Canada these funds will be provided through the Canadian Rotarian Water Foundation, to projects undertaken by Canadian Rotary clubs and districts.

The Foundation’s interactive website, seminars, lectures, books, field experiences and exhibitions supported by a range of media resources create the programs within which we can examine our relationship to the natural environment, its structure and ecosystems, our ethics and responsibilities. Sponsored seminars and exhibitions will make substantial contributions toward heightening a population-wide appreciation of our environment and advancing our individual and collective desire to contribute toward its well being for today and tomorrow.

The slaughter of wildlife is reaching unprecedented levels. Poaching of wildlife and elephants and rhino in particular, has escalated as a result of the rising demand for ivory in Asia and the Middle East. Some experts estimate that as many as 35,000 elephants a year are being slaughtered, 10% of Africa’s elephant population each year. Big Life Canada Foundation was established to combat the poaching of elephants and wildlife and to protect their habitat. Its current geographic scope is the Amboseli ecosystem, which straddles the Kenyan-Tanzania border, and is comprised of approximately 2 million acres. Big Life Foundation Canada will focus on establishing anti-poaching camps in the highest needed areas of Kenya & Tanzania.
