The Coin Laundry Association and its 501(c)3 charity, the LaundryCares Foundation, are trying to help the victims of the recent devastation which has occurred as a result of Hurricane Harvey in Texas and Louisiana. One of the primary directives of the LaundryCares Foundation is to help all people to receive the basic need of having clean clothes through a network of self-service laundries.
The CLA and LaundryCares Foundation are requesting that all laundry facilities report their open location status by completing a simple form. An updated, searchable table of open laundry locations will be made available on the LaundryCares website, and this page will be shared on social media to the local population.
As you are aware, Hurricane Harvey has caused a tremendous amount of damage and has displaced a great many people from their homes. Even those who have not had to evacuate or who have been able to return home may have discovered that they have washers and dryers which are inoperable. All of these people need to have clean and dry clothes, and, subsequently, they are seeking the local laundry facilities near them.
The participation of laundry owners in this effort to help families to find a place at which to wash and dry their clothes can be of great help during the recovery after this disaster. If you own a store and are in operation, please use the button below to visit the form to submit your location. Also, if you are a store owner and you are experiencing trouble with your laundromat, please let us know in the comments area on that page, and we’ll be in touch with you soon.
The thoughts and prayers of the CLA staff and board members go out to all of those affected near and far by the storm. We wish to thank you for your support in our effort to lend assistance to those in need.
