DEARBORN — The city of Dearborn is notifying residents that Clean Water Action (CWA) canvassers are planning on going door-to-door throughout the city.

CWA is a national environmental organization with the mission of, “working for clean and safe water, waste prevention and funding for enforcement of environmental protection.”

Over the next several weeks, canvassers from the non-profit organization will be going door-to-door throughout the city asking for donations, signatures and other forms of civic action.
