Mississauga Qualifier Recap โ What a Start!
Our first qualifier of the SPOGOMI World Cup 2025 โ Canada Stage took place on May 17 at Studio.89 in Mississauga, and what an unforgettable kickoff it was!
Despite battling strong winds and periods of heavy rain, 14 determined participants (5 teams) came out and collected a remarkable 45.66 kg of litter from the surrounding area. Their efforts targeted everything from cigarette butts to plastic bottles, showing incredible teamwork and resilience.
We are so proud of everyone who took part in this powerful demonstration of community action and environmental responsibility.
