Orange Sky Australia is the world’s first free mobile laundry service for people experiencing homelessness. Orange Sky volunteers have engaged in conversations, helping to dispel myths about homelessness and positively connect communities all around Australia.

Our 10th van “Splasher” services over 1,500 Tasmanians who find themselves homeless. An anonymous donor in Hobart has made Splasher possible.

See our flyer below with locations and further information.

Splasher services 12 locations across 7 days and is operated by an incredibly generous, compassionate group of volunteers in Hobart. We dream to have Splasher also servicing the Launceston community so please get in touch if you can help with this dream!

None of this would be possible without the support of our National Doing Good Partners The Good Guys and National Servicing Partner Richard Jay.
