Nicholas Marchesi and Lucas Patchett from Orange Shy Lanundry helping the homeless.

Nicholas Marchesi and Lucas Patchett was best mates. Nicholas is 21 and Lucas is 22 years old today. They built a free mobile laundry in their old van to help the homeless. Orange Sky Laundry began in September 2014 and since then, the world first idea has rapidly expanded to five vans in Brisbane, Melbourne, South East Victoria, Sydney and the Gold Coast. Run by over 270 volunteers, the custom fitted vans with two commercial washing machines and two dryers, service over 36 locations and wash over 350 loads each week. A catalyst for bringing people of all walks of life together, Orange Sky facilitates countless hours of conversations each week. February

2015, they took their mobile laundry to North Queensland to wash clothes in cyclone effected communities. Nicholas and Lucas have found a way to treat others the way they want to be treated by restoring respect, raising health standards and reducing the strain on resources. They now plan to expand services Australia-wide with the aim of positively connecting the community and improving the lives of others. 270 volunteers operate the vans which have two commercial washing machines and two dryers and reach homeless Australians in 36 locations.
