Rally Around Homelessness laundry campaign officially kicks off [Video]

Rally Around Homelessness officially launched a new program aiming to provide laundry services to those in need.

The program, dubbed ‘Operation Fresh Start’ is a follow up to the outreach group’s ‘I Gotch You’ campaign, which collected new underwear to disperse to those in need.

Now, those folks have the opportunity to clean their clothes at SeaSpray Laundry in Regina’s North Central community.

Paik went on to express hope that this official launch will keep the momentum going in terms of community support.
