On the eve of Clean 2017, the Coin Laundry Association’s LaundryCares Foundation<\/a> hosted a free laundry day in Las Vegas. This event was held from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the newly opened Las Vegas Coin Laundry #6<\/a>, owned by multi-store operator Bruce Gilliat.<\/p>\n

“Free Laundry Day-Las Vegas” provided needed laundry services at no charge to nearly 90 local families. In addition, this event also featured free burgers and hot dogs grilled in the store’s parking lot, a DJ, storytelling and face-painting for the kids, bike giveaways and more.<\/p>\n

Free laundry days represent an industry-wide effort to give back to underserved areas that strongly support self-service laundry businesses on a daily basis. As a result, volunteers from all across the United States and Canada, who are in Las Vegas to attend the Clean Show, participated in this LaundyCares-sponsored event.<\/p>\n

“Laundromats are a community hub, and families can benefit from much more than clean clothes,” said Coin Laundry Association President and CEO Brian Wallace. “LaundryCares’ free laundry days aim to leave lasting impressions on all who attend. On top of free laundry, we give away children’s books and educational activities that families can take home to carry forward the experience.”<\/p>\n

To make these free laundry events the truly rewarding experiences they’ve become, the LaundryCares Foundation also has partnered with two great charitable organizations: The Laundry Project<\/a> and Too Small to Fail.<\/a><\/p>\n
