These two Aussies have come up with a brilliant way to lend the homeless population of Brisbane a helping hand! The two 20-year-old friends have turned a van into a mobile laundromat for the homeless.
And thanks to all their supporters, these two champs have successfully equipped the first van with everything needed to wash 20 kilograms of laundry per hour with plans already forming for the entire fleet of vans they hope to equip next!
"We got started as a result of seeing the fantastic work that food vans and the like do for homeless people," the guys explained. "Food, healthcare and support are all readily available yet there is minimal affordable access to hygiene services and we feel it is an area that is overlooked."
Their self proclaimed goals are to raise health standards, restore respect, and reduce strain on resources, and it looks as if they're doing a pretty bang-up job so far!
