Welcome, Rotary.
You don’t need another project.
You need one that actually moves the needle.
You’ve seen the problem.
Women and children carry water every day, not because water is scarce, but because moving it is brutal, slow, and unsafe.
The EcoRoller fixes that problem immediately. This is not a pilot. This is not a study.
Rotary clubs in Canada and the USA are providing fully-funded EcoRollers to Rotary clubs in South Africa for distribution.
This project is ready to deploy now.
Funded by people who care
- Why the EcoRoller Works
Built for African terrain.
Tested in Tough Conditions.
A Practical, Dignified Shift
Built For Real Conditions
Repeatable at Scale
The Roll It Home Campaign
A smarter way for Rotary clubs to help move water, and move South Africa forward.
You’ve just seen a simple solution to a hard daily problem. The EcoRoller changes that immediately.
The Roll It Home Campaign brings this proven solution into communities at scale by connecting Canadian, American, and South African Rotary clubs with practical action that delivers real results.
This is not a fundraising exercise.
It’s a way for Rotary clubs to take part in something that works.
The Opportunity for Rotary Clubs
The Roll It Home Campaign offers Rotary a rare combination:
- A practical solution, not a theory
- Immediate, visible impact at the household level
- A model built on service and partnership, not charity
- A clear way for Rotary clubs to support South African families through direct action
This is about backing a solution that restores dignity, saves time, and strengthens daily life in the communities Rotary serves.
What Participation Looks Like
Clubs that participate in the Roll It Home Campaign help to:
- Place EcoRollers directly into rural and underserved communities
- Work with local partners to organise distribution
- Strengthen families through a simple, durable water tool
- Be identified with a project that delivers results immediately
There is no long pilot phase. There is no waiting for outcomes.
Families feel the benefit the same day the EcoRollers arrive.
- This is how meaningful change is rolled out.
How the Roll It Home Campaign Works
1.
Rotary club registers for a Pilot Project
Each Pilot Project follows a uniform distribution plan that delivers 50 EcoRollers into the selected community by the participating Rotary club.
2.
Your club organises a local distribution
The club coordinates the distribution on its own or in partnership with a local organisation such as an NGO, school, church group, or community organisation.
3.
Flat fee shipping across South Africa
EcoRollers are manufactured in East London and transported to the distribution point for a flat delivery fee of R2,500 anywhere in South Africa.
4.
Families receive EcoRollers directly
Rotarians deliver the EcoRollers to the selected community and distributed directly to the family member, together with simple instructions on care and maintenance.
5.
Each recipient registers their EcoRoller
Each family recipient registers their EcoRoller with a Registration and Survey Form and
contributes a R200 Registration Fee, reinforcing personal ownership and dignity
6.
Delivery is documented and confirmed
Photos, short cellphone videos, and a short event report document the distribution for accountability and reporting to the sponsoring Rotary clubs and, if possible, involve local media.
