Laundry Love in Larned 💙🧺
Sponsored by Pawnee Valley Community Hospital

Not only did we fill every washer more than once on June 25—we made meaningful connections, too. A single mom facing car troubles was connected to the Prairie Godmother Fund through Golden Belt Community Foundation, and another neighbor got help exploring prescription assistance.

This is why we keep showing up.
Because Laundry Love is about dignity, support, and community.

Want to be part of the difference?
Sponsor a month of Laundry Love!
