One Boat. One Week. One Mission:

Sailing Across the Netherlands to Support Real Sustainability Efforts

Im Jelle Bollen, founder of ZentoMotive, and I’m taking on a different kind of journey.

With nothing more than a low-budget boat and a minimal setup, I’ll be traveling for one week across the waterways of the Netherlands — not for leisure, but for purpose.

>To raise awareness about sustainable living on and around the water
>And to support multiple organizations that are actively protecting nature

Where the Donations Will Go

All contributions will be divided between:

✅ Environmental Cleanup Initiatives (river & canal cleanup groups)
✅ Reforestation or Marine Restoration Projects
✅ Local Sustainable Education or Repair/Reuse Campaigns
✅ ZentoMotive’s Own Awareness Efforts — creating content, tools, and inspiration to help more people live lightly on the water

⚠ Full Transparency:
To keep the journey moving, 3% of donations will be used to cover fuel costs. Until clean boating options become more accessible, this small footprint is our stepping stone toward bigger change.

What This Trip Is Really About

This isn’t about me — it’s about starting conversations.

I’ll document the entire trip to:

• Show real examples of sustainable improvising — living with less, reusing more

• Highlight both beauty and pollution in our waterways

• Promote the causes you’re helping fund so more people can support them too

Want to Be Part of It?

Whether you donate, share, or simply follow along, you’ll be contributing to multiple environmental efforts at once.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about taking real steps together, even on a tiny boat.

See you on the water.
