community laundry enterprise assisting neighbours
CLEAN Break is a neighbourhood community laundry program that provides homeless and low-income people a place to get their clothes and bedding cleaned in a safe environment of friendship, support, respect, and dignity. Help accessing support services and refreshments (coffee, tea, baked goods) are provided.
We offer a time of fellowship and free laundry to those who need it every Wednesday morning from 9:30am - 12pm at Spin Cycle Laundromat, 1910 Commercial Drive.
The cut off time to begin a washing load is 11:30am to allow for drying time.
If you would like to co-host people coming in to do free laundry, contact Christina Chiu.
Grandview's laundry program has been a place of friendship, connection, and assisting neighbours for over 15 years.
Our vision
We seek to be a community time and space that nurtures belonging and friendship extending acceptance, listening, dignity, and grace.
our values
- Belonging and Dignity: We cultivate community life in which every person feels important and accepted and can grow in their own gifts. We believe in the worth and dignity of each person and that each person has unique gifts, journeys, and stories to offer and contribute.
- Friendship: We companion one another, nudging each other toward greater trust and openness. To create a community that fosters mutual support and the common good. We will also share the responsibility to create and maintain a safe and supportive environment for everyone who comes and the stewardship of the place extended by Spin Cycle.
- Grace & Prayer: We offer to be a listening ear for each other and seek to mutually learn from and help each other to grow in love and grace. We offer prayer freely to those who want it, but respect where each person is at in their life and spiritual journeys. We will work to maintain good trust and relationships.
