INVITATION/PRESS RELEASE
Clean water is a condition of life for everyone, everywhere in the world. Since this spring, the Haarlem-Mutare City Link has been working with organizations in Haarlem and its sister city Mutare to clean up the rivers in both cities. We kicked off on March 18, 2023 during National Cleaning Day in both cities. The Spaarne was cleaned that day by IVN, Canoe club the Trekvogels, Scouting group Kontiki, SUPmission Haarlem, de Pinguïn, City link Haarlem Mutare, the Roadside Gang and many volunteers. The citizen group Mutare Rivers Rehabilitation Initiative (MRRI) cleans the Sakubva every week and works with the Mutare municipality. The joint water supply companies Netherlands VEI supports a drinking water supply project in Mutare and is a partner of our project.
