Amsterdam City Swim

Sounding of the gong announces Amsterdam City Swim

The sounding of the gong announces the fifth edition of the Amsterdam City Swim.  Olympic gold winner at the open water 10k and ambassador of Amsterdam City Swim, Ferry Weertman, sounds the gong.

By annually organizing a unique, impactful and social swimming event in the Amsterdam canals, the Foundation Amsterdam City Swim strives to raise as many funds for research into underexposed diseases. As long as there is no cure for ALS, the Amsterdam City Swim aims to raise money for the ALS Foundation in the Netherlands and draw attention to the disease ALS. The Amsterdam City Swim takes place on Sunday 11 September, with over 2500 adults and 300 kids participating.

Unilever (ticker symbol: UNIA) is the main sponsor of the Amsterdam City Swim since 2015, channeling the sponsorship with their brand Dove Men+Care. Unilever has chosen to support the Amsterdam City Swim with Dove Men+Care because Unilever and Dove are both brands with a social mission.
