“Bine ati venit la Ziua Copiilor!” Alf, a volunteer from Germany, said in the microphone, trying to get the attention of all the children spread around the yard. A minute of puzzling around, finding seats, and settling down, and “Ziua Copiilor” - Children’s Day, had officially begun.

Raindrops were landing on my head as we stood surrounded by a sea of achievements, wrapped in blue plastic bags. We had been through sweat, blood, and tears, walking the paths of mud and garbage and now, finally, we could see the result of our hard work. In front of us stood around 50 plastic bags filled with all the trash you could imagine; clothes, cups, condoms, car parts, bottles, bags, bones, diapers, gadgets, shoes, tin, toys, toothpaste and I could go on.

We were around 30 volunteers who had faced the rain and decided to clean up Riscani, the north part of Chisinau. Not only us, but all over the city, few brave people had defied the bad weather to clean up the capital.
