BAPS Charities Walk Green 2019 in Ottawa, ON is an event to raise funds to support the life-saving work of the William Osler Health System and various charitable activities organized by BAPS Charities.

In the USA, the walk will support The Nature Conservancy’s efforts to plant one billion trees by 2025 through their Plant a Billion Trees initiative.
