Laundry Love
One of the most highly requested programs by farmworker families and a core priority of the community we serve. Friends of Fieldworkers funds four monthly Laundry Love events in El Rio and Oxnard, ensuring consistent, reliable access to free laundry services for Ventura County farmworkers.
Laundry Love is part of a national initiative that provides no-cost laundry services to individuals and families experiencing financial hardship across the country. Through our partnership with the national program, we help expand this impact locally in Ventura County.

Supporting Families, One Wash at a Time
During these events, we offer the following:
Fresh food distribution to our attendees in partnership with Food Share of Ventura County
A mini clothing "shop" for families to take from our collected in-kind donations
A Children's Program with arts, crafts, and science
A homework center where students attending with their parents can get free homework help
We often partner with local government and community organizations to distribute an "item of the month" to our families. These have included: children's Halloween costumes, Lions District backpacks filled with school supplies, hand sanitizers, and covid tests.
