Laundry Love
The Laundry Love initiative provides ongoing support to individuals and families facing financial hardship by assisting with their laundry needs. At The Barre Congregational Church, our dedicated volunteers gather once a week at two different laundromats in Central Vermont to offer assistance.
Whether it’s helping cover the cost of machines, assisting with washing and folding, or simply lending an extra set of hands, our volunteers are there to provide kindness, dignity, and practical support to those who need it.
Please refer to the schedule posted to find out when and where we will be each week.
Through the generosity of local businesses and community fundraising efforts, we are able to provide this much-needed assistance. If you would like to contribute, please use the donation button below. Your support helps us continue making a meaningful difference.
