Our impact in Wollongong
Orange Sky Australia launched its mobile laundry van for the Illawarra Region, helping to bring free laundry and conversation to people in need.
‘Daisy’ was first launched in November 2016 thanks to two very special community members, Bruce and Val McDiarmid. They saw a chance to help the community they loved and were able to donate enough money to purchase an Orange Sky van. Our co-founders first met with the community in Wollongong when they were driving Daisy's brother van, Splasher, to Tasmania. The boys were inspired by the community's eagerness to get involved and help provide laundry and conversation to those doing it tough.
