“ViS Detachering” will be a new Silver Business Angel of the Plastic Soup Foundation
Amsterdam, November 1, 2018 – As of January 1, 2019 ViS Detachering from Reeuwijk will become a Silver Business Angel of the Plastic Soup Foundation. Gijs van Ierssel, founder of ViS Detachering, spoke about the decision to support our organization: “Sustainability is our top priority. We want to leave a better world for our children. For example, we promote driving electric automobiles, we do not serve water from plastic bottles, all our business gifts come from sustainable materials and we separate our waste. For us, becoming a Business Angel with the Plastic Soup Foundation is a logical next step. The polluted seas and oceans are impacting everyone, and the Plastic Soup Foundation tackles the problem at its sources. I also feel the urge to help as a fanatic water sports enthusiast and a fan of the sea.”
The Plastic Soup Foundation is extremely happy to have ViS onboard as a Business Angel in the new year and we are looking forward to a long and prosperous collaboration.
