When Calvin Dresden is not at work for the Municipality of Culemborg, he cycles through the city to collect litter: on his bike with his music. A spontaneous donation has yielded € 974 and with that money he will do even more good work…
Who does not know Calvin? All inhabitants of Culemborg have come across him with his crate on the back of the bike, music first and his safety vest, looking for litter. Sometimes until late in the evening. Reason for Wigand Pin to do something for the boy. He contacted Margret Kaiser from Café De Mart. ‘Wieland Pin had decided to do something for him and whether I could do something with it. That has been achieved in consultation with his parents. Every year we want to put someone in the limelight who has Hart for the City and who can be brought by a resident. How beautiful is that?
Orphanage in Tanzania
Initially the goal was to collect € 500 for a JBL speaker on his bike. His motivation to clean up litter? “I just like to do it,” is his reaction when he receives the € 974. Calvin is not going to buy a speaker for it, but also gives it away in a symbolic way: He is going to buy a return ticket to Tanzania to volunteer there with his father in an orphanage. The campaign runs through and through a post from Margret yesterday the counter is now at € 1195. Wonderful that is possible in the city!
