WHO:
Families, individuals and first responders
in need of personal care items, cleaning products or laundry
services in the wake of the Nebraska flooding.
WHAT:
Two Tide Loads of Hope Mobile Laundry
Units have been deployed to support relief and recovery efforts in
the wake of the devastating flooding in Nebraska. The Tide Loads of
Hope mobile laundry vehicles will begin services in Fremont and
Bellevue on Saturday, March 23, providing free full-service laundry
services to residents affected by the recent flooding. Residents
can bring clothes (up to two loads per household) to be washed,
dried and folded free of charge for those directly impacted by the
flooding. All washable clothing types can be accepted with the
exception of heavy bedding.
P&G will also distribute free personal care and cleaning
kits with everyday essentials to those in affected neighborhoods
and areas.
WHY:
The flooding in the Midwest has destroyed
an extraordinary amount of homes and businesses. The area has seen
devastating effects of the flooding, with three lives lost to-date
and more than 2,000 homes and businesses destroyed.
P&G has a history of giving back to the communities
where we live and work, and we want to provide everyday essentials
to those who need it most to help bring a sense of normalcy in this
time of need. These services are free and available to people
affected by the disaster and the volunteers who are helping to
respond.
WHERE:
Starting on Saturday, March 23, the team
will collect laundry from 9:00 AM-5:00 PM CT in Fremont and
Bellevue or until a collective 300 loads are reached (two loads per
household). The team will also be distributing personal care and
cleaning kits directly out into the affected areas.
The Tide Loads of Hope mobile laundry units will be located
at: Walmart Supercenter 3010 E 23rd Street, Fremont, NE
68025 Bellevue Christian Center 1400 Harvell Drive,
Bellevue, NE 68005
