Thorold, ON - The Rotary Club of St. Catharines South will host the first annual Alina Masud Memorial Indoor Walk-A-Thon on Saturday, January 24, 2026, from 3:00–6:00 p.m. at Canada Games Park in Thorold, honouring the life and legacy of Alina Masud, a Brock University student remembered for her compassion and generosity.
Organized by the Club’s International Committee, the fundraiser reflects Rotary’s long-standing commitment to addressing child malnutrition in Pakistan, Alina’s ancestral homeland. Funds raised will support the procurement of therapeutic food and essential micronutrients for children under five, as well as pregnant and lactating women - interventions that are proven to save lives when delivered on time.
Through partnerships under the Trust for Malnutrition & Stunted Growth (TMSG), Rotary-led efforts have already supported treatment for tens of thousands of children and mothers.
Registration for the walk is $10, and members of the public are encouraged to participate alongside family, friends, and workplace teams.
By hosting this event, the Rotary Club of St. Catharines South aims to honour Alina Masud’s legacy by turning remembrance into meaningful, life-saving impact.
