It was a busy Earth Day for Rotary clubs across the GTA.
On April 22, hundreds of trees were planted as part of the living memorial honouring those who served our country and sacrificed their lives. Contributions to the Highway of Heroes Tree Campaign on behalf of various Rotary Clubs and Rotary District 7070 were also be announced.
To date, at least 20 Rotary Clubs from District 7070 (which stretches from Toronto to Belleville) have become engaged in the Highway of Heroes Tree Campaign. Enough funds have been pledged for each of the 2,100 club members in the district, each tree ultimately becoming part of the Highway of Heroes Tree Campaign.
