The Role of Rotary Clubs in Water Safety

Rotary clubs worldwide have a storied history of support for the Josh the Otter water safety mission to end accidental drownings. Nearly every US state and four countries are involved. If you're part of a Rotary club—or any community organization—consider starting a Josh the Otter Water Safety and Literacy Project in your area. Together, we can reach more children and families.
