This Winter, A1 Laundromat Encourages People to Give Their Used Clothing to People in Need

Sacramento, United States - January 4, 2020 / A1 Laundromat /

This winter, A1 Laundromat encourages Sacramento residents to donate used clothing to homeless shelters and people in need. Closets and drawers overflow with clothing that is out of style, a bit worn, or forgotten. Though these garments are not in use any longer, it does not mean that they are no longer useful. That forgotten pair of jeans can still serve a very useful purpose this winter by being donated to the local homeless shelter.

The need for donated clothing is great and growing. The Sacramento Bee reported in June of 2019, “Even as the city and county of Sacramento pour millions of dollars into ending homelessness, a count this year found 1,905 more people living on the streets, in cars or in shelter beds since 2017, raising the estimated number of homeless people countywide to 5,570.”

The homeless situation in California has grabbed national attention. In an effort to ease the crisis in their area, A1 Laundromat has called upon area residents to remember and repurpose their unwanted clothing by gathering it up and donating it to the needy.

A spokesperson for A1 Laundromat said, “This America we live in is an abundant place to call home. We are blessed to have so many things that we need and want at our disposal. Anytime, anywhere, we can get more stuff. This is why we should donate as many clothes as possible. Especially this time of year as winter is starting to bear down on us hard.”

With winter settling in, there is an immediate concern for those who are most vulnerable. The spokesperson continued, “There are many Americans that simply do not have the necessary winter garments to make it through winter. The really sad part of this is that many of these unfortunate people are children. This is unacceptable in these United States that any child should be left cold due to a lack of proper winter clothes. This is where we, as United States citizens, must join together and solve this crisis. The spare clothes that all of us have in our closets, and various other places, should be donated and made available to all and anybody who is cold due to lack of proper winter clothing. Here are many, many other people and children that need our immediate help and assistance in acquiring winter clothing. This idea does not have to stop at the beginning of spring. This movement should continue year-round as we attempt to make a difference in peoples’ lives.”

A1 Laundromat is dedicated to keeping its facility clean, its atmosphere friendly, and its customers satisfied. The laundromat offers brand new washers and dryers, and washers can handle anywhere from one to nine loads at a time. Services include dry cleaning, laundry pickup, and laundry drop-off.
