Donations
At the Germantown Laundromat, we believe in supporting organizations that value and bolster environmental justice, encourage sustainable practices and behaviors, foster community and advocate for the health of all people + the planet. The following are just some of the organizations that we feel do just that. Learn more below and join us in supporting their efforts.

stockbridge-munsee community
Our Laundromat sits on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people. The Mohicans migrated to the Mahicannituck, the river that flows both ways (Hudson Valley) 700 years ago. They refer to themselves as the Muh-he-con-neok which means People of the Waters that are Never Still. They are tied to the river by name and livelihood— seasonal hunting, fishing and farming along the Hudson and its tributaries. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community.
