The event is an effort to raise money for children at risk of hunger. Every duck purchased provides 15 meals for a child or family in need.

Crews hoisted nearly 200-thousand rubber ducks in a semi trailer and dumped them off the purple people bridge where they formed a bobbling ribbon of yellow in the Ohio river's waters.
