September 16: National Cleaning Day

WILLEMSTAD - The Curaçao Clean Up Foundation calls on the people of Curaçao to say "no" against pollution on Saturday, September 16.

The people of the island will say no to pollution by cleaning an area of their choice. Participating groups can sign up to qualify for garbage bags, discounts on Coca-Cola soft drinks, and cleaning materials such as rakes and gloves. The groups will also get free passage at the landfill or the garbage disposal area of Selikor.

In addition, the foundation also calls on companies to sponsor the "National Cleaning Day" with financial or material donations.
