Laundry Love is a nationwide program that assists the homeless by providing laundry services to those in need. A group of volunteers from the Grace Church of New Bedford are working with local laundromats to wash the clothes of homeless and women. The program started 14 years ago in California. To date, more than one-million loads of laundry have been done and more than 750,000 people helped. Local volunteers will join WBSM's Jim Phillips to tell the story of Laundry Love and share the successes of the New Bedford chapter.

Townsquare Sunday with Jim Phillips can be heard each Sunday at 6 a.m. on WBSM 1420 and WBSM.com. Townsquare Sunday is a weekly public affairs program highlighting non-profits and community organizations in the Greater New Bedford area.
