Local Laundry | Frequently Asked Qs
How does Local Laundry help build community?
OUR GOAL: TO BUILD COMMUNITY THROUGH CANADIAN CLOTHING
We want to be Canada’s best company at building community through our five guiding pillars: representing where you come from; sharing stories from the community; collaborating with others who also want to have a positive impact; giving back through local charities, and; producing Canada made clothing.
We have committed to donating 10% of our profits to local charities that our customers help choose. We produce only made in Canada garments to support Canadian manufacturing, Canadian jobs, a diversified Canadian economy and to reduce our carbon footprint.
Local Laundry was founded in 2015 as a way to use clothing to bring people together while creating a positive impact on the community. Today, you can find our garments in stores across Canada. We have donated more than $40,000 to local charities and we have collaborated with hundreds of community builders.
If you ever have any questions about us or our story, please feel free to reach out at customerservice@locallaundry.ca. For more on how this process works or who we have donated to check out our Community Page.
