NetOne and City of Harare Champion a Cleaner, Greener CBD

NetOne, in partnership with the City of Harare, spearheaded a dynamic clean-up campaign in Harare’s Central Business District (CBD), breathing new life into the urban landscape.

Held on the first Friday of the month, the initiative aligns with Zimbabwe’s national clean-up programme and brought together an inspiring mix of NetOne staff, City of Harare officials, and informal traders.

Armed with brooms, gloves, and determination, participants took to the streets to sweep, collect litter, and revitalize public spaces.

The event showcased not only a commitment to environmental cleanliness but also a powerful display of unity and shared responsibility.

The campaign forms part of NetOne’s broader Corporate Social Responsibility efforts under its Environmental Sustainability pillar.

By promoting consistent, hands-on action, the organization emphasizes that even the smallest contributions can spark meaningful, long-term change.

The energy in the CBD was electric, as volunteers worked shoulder to shoulder, driven by a shared vision of a cleaner and healthier city.

What began as a clean-up quickly transformed into a powerful moment of community engagement and civic pride.

City officials reminded participants that this is an ongoing movement, taking place every first Friday of the month, and urged all citizens to get involved. The message was clear—building a better city is a collective effort.

The initiative also drew spontaneous participation from passersby, a testament to its contagious spirit.

As NetOne and the City of Harare continue to lead by example, they are demonstrating that real transformation happens when communities, businesses, and authorities come together.

Through this partnership, a cleaner, greener CBD is no longer just an aspiration—it’s becoming a reality.
