Students at Brooklyn's P.S. 328 are ensuring all of their classmates have access to clean clothes by installing a laundry room in their school. The kids, along with school staff, celebrated the launch of the laundry with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. "We wanted to make this laundromat because it helps a lot of people in need who can't clean their own clothes," said Jordan James Emery, student at P.S. 328. "Some people, they don't have their own laundry room and it costs money. This is free."
