National Laundry Day (United States)


 

In the mid-1800s a man called Emmett Lee Dickinson established April 15th as National Laundry Day. Dickinson had invented the laundry basket on wheels and wherever he went he urged others to join his crusade for national cleanliness.

Celebrated with the idea of showing appreciation for this household chore that some people seem to despise, National Laundry Day encourages individuals and families to remember how amazing it is to have fresh, clean laundry – and perhaps even thank the person who did it!
