Stichting Waterpas voor schoon drinkwater Cas en Michiel De Haan_ De Haan Verhuizingen

 Although water is becoming an increasingly significant issue in the Netherlands due to climate change, it is an acute problem in some parts of the world. One such place is Mombasa, Kenya, where clean drinking water is scarce.

De Haan has been a partner of the Waterpas Foundation for 15 years, which provides clean drinking water to over 20,000 schoolchildren daily, resulting in significantly fewer water-related diseases. This leads to reduced absenteeism, improved concentration, better academic performance, and a greater chance of a promising future.

Michiel de Haan serves as a board member of this foundation and has visited several schools alongside his son Cas (9th generation De Haan). They were deeply impressed by the immense impact of clean drinking water. We in the Netherlands are fortunate that it is so readily available. Supporting the Waterpas Foundation is highly recommended.
