Community & Volunteer

Swim Drink Fish houses four water monitoring hubs in the Great Lakes region: Toronto, Niagara, Zhiibaahaasing First Nation, and Kingston. These regions have different water quality issues that impact their communities.

2020 has opened our eyes to how much we need accessible clean water for our mental and physical health. This Giving Tuesday, donate to help fund Swim Drink Fish’s citizen science programs and movement to safeguard and provide access to water for everyone.

The Vancouver Hub engages Vancouverites in water quality monitoring, data-sharing, and stewardship of False Creek. The hub monitors water quality and provides opportunities for Vancouverites to connect with the water.

North Saskatchewan Riverkeeper, a Swim Drink Fish initiative, runs a program in Edmonton that monitors two sites along the North Saskatchewan River, Accidental Beach and Terwillegar Park. We monitored in 2017 and 2019 and need your help to return in 2021!

We’ve been fighting for Kingston’s waters for the past two decades. The Kingston Hub is an extension of our ties with this waterfront community. The hub launched in the summer of 2020, making it our newest monitoring hub.

Located in the Niagara region, the Lake Erie - Niagara Hub monitors water quality in Lake Erie. The hub is hosted by the Niagara Coastal Community Collaborative, which prioritizes healthy beaches, nature based shorelines, and habitat and species.

Our hub, hosted by Zhiibaahaasing First Nation, is located on the west end of Manitoulin Island in the North Channel of Lake Huron. The hub provides traditional and scientific knowledge for youth, teaching them why clean water is so important.
