Our Community Laundromat named Motor City Match winner
(CBS DETROIT) - La Cesha Brintley, owner of Our Community Laundromat in Detroit's Bethune Community neighborhood, joined CBS News Detroit on Thursday to discuss her business being named a Motor City Match winner.
Our Community Laundromat is the 145th brick-and-mortar business opened by Motor City Match. The laundromat, which received a $75,000 grant from the Motor City Match program, doubles as a neighborhood resource center.
