 The power of community was on full display on April 27, 2025, as over 500 participants gathered at La Mesa Ecopark for “Taralets Para sa Tubig!”—a Fun Run and Nature Walk organized by the Philippine Association of Water Districts (PAWD), in partnership with the Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA), in celebration of World Earth Day 2025.

At the heart of the event was a shared message: "Let’s create ripples of action that flow forward for a water-secure nation."


PAWD President Salvador “Budz” Royeca, led the call for unity across the country’s water districts, while LWUA Chairman Ronnie L. Ong, who also personally joined the runners, emphasized the government’s strong commitment to securing sustainable water access for future generations. Also present were Mr. Jocot de Dios, President and CEO of Manila Water, a strong private sector ally in the water sustainability movement; H.E. Miguel Utray, Ambassador of Spain, and H.E. Constance See, Ambassador of Singapore, who participated in the 3K Run alongside her family—demonstrating personal and diplomatic support for community-driven climate action.

Ong emphasized the role of unity and personal commitment in water conservation: “What we work hard for is to ensure that we deliver safe, potable, and affordable water from source to tap. And that’s what we’re all here for today: to commit together that we will conserve water together for a water-secure nation,” Ong said. “I’m also happy to announce that I commit, as Chairman of LWUA, to donate a rainwater catchment facility to the La Mesa Ecopark because of your immense support.”

 

After crossing the finish line, participants signed a “Commitment Wall”, symbolizing their personal pledge to become champions of water conservation and sustainability in their homes and communities. The wall filled with names and messages stood as a visual reminder of the power of united action.
