Have you seen the banana?
My name is Paul
For 14 years I have been picking up trash in the local area while running - it is call plogging.
I can often be seen running around Haarlem picking up trash in a banana suit.
Have you, or one of your colleagues, seen me?
But this is not a story about trash.
It is not a mission AGAINST something, it is FOR
FOR inspiring people to take simple positive actions in their community
FOR telling positive stories about how we can make an impact
FOR showing people that sustainability makes your life better TODAY!
FOR showing people that we can have fun protecting our future.
Every time I run,
I pick up trash
2025 Targets
5,200km
50,000L of trash
No ordinary sponsorship
I need your (tax deductible!) support - whether it is €50 of €5,000.
Each amount benefits you, each amount sponsors me to go further.
Any amount will support me. Here are just a few examples packages!

You don't do anything - I do all the work!

We are now talking logos on shirt and some really REALLY exciting benefits - for this I would suggest we jump on a call.
