SPARTANBURG, S.C. (FOX Carolina) – A big donation to The Cleveland Academy of Leadership in Spartanburg will help the school continue making a difference in the lives of students and parents.

Thursday afternoon, ReGenesis Health Care donated a lot on laundry supplies to the elementary school. Enough to wash 5,000 loads.

Back in January, the school started a program called ‘Loads of Love.’ If families need a place to wash clothes, they can do it at the school for free.

A donation this size means more families will have clean clothes. Something many take for granted, but times are tough. Simple things like a free place to wash and dry clothes is a game changer.

This makes a difference in the lives of children, who can be negatively impacted. Especially in a school setting.

“For one, they don’t have the capacity to clean their own clothes,” Marquice Clark said, the principal. “But you also think about the relief of a single mom or a mom and dad; who on some occasions have to spend up to $60 a week or every other week.”

This is what community partnership looks like, giving back to those closest in your neighborhood.
