Mobile Laundry

Read Now
 
Picture
The mission of the Mobile Laundry Program of Homeward Alliance is to break down barriers to success for low-income families and for adults experiencing homelessness in Larimer County, through free, mobile laundry services.

The Mobile Laundry truck is equipped with six sets of washers and dryers. They identify regular, predictable locations in Loveland and Fort Collins for program participants to drop off their dirty clothes and then pick them up 90 minutes later (or at the end of the day), clean, dry and folded!

Why Laundry? Poudre and Thompson School Districts report, on average, 2,150 students experience homelessness each year. Families who lack a fixed, regular place to live struggle to meet their basic needs-including access to laundry. Larimer County school personnel report that students are negatively impacted by the lack of clean clothing, including school absences, social stigma and self-esteem issues.

The Loveland community lacks sufficient laundry services for people experiencing homelessness and not having access to clean clothes is a proven barrier to success. Primary hygiene needs such as laundry are often overlooked but essential for anyone trying to secure employment, compete for affordable housing and regain their self-sufficiency.

The amount donated to the Mobile Laundry project was $1158.46.
