Kehlani is proving once again that her heart is just as big as her voice. The Grammy-nominated artist has teamed up with the nonprofit Current Initiatives to bless single mothers across the country with a little extra love — and a lot of clean clothes.
In celebration of her new single “FOLDED,” Kehlani is launching “Nini’s Fluff & Fold”, a one-day initiative set to take place on August 9th from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., offering free laundry services for moms who could use a helping hand. And yes, DMV, that means she’s coming through for you, too. The local spot? SuperSuds Laundromat is in Falls Church, VA, so mark your calendars and bring those laundry bags.
Other cities getting in on the spin cycle of love include Los Angeles (Long Beach), Oakland, Charlotte, Chicago, Atlanta, and New York City. It’s all part of Kehlani’s mission to honor the single mothers in her life and our communities.
“Growing up, I knew how hard it was for all the single mamas in my family to get the tasks done on top of it all. Clean clothes is a basic necessity. I got y’all. Thank you [Current Initiatives] for sponsoring this initiative, and my brother @city.james for such an incredible idea. AS A THANK YOU FOR SENDING THIS SONG OVER THE MOON! I love you mommy’s. You deserve the world,” Kehlani shared on Instagram.
Current Initiatives — the nonprofit behind this effort — is no stranger to giving back. Through its Laundry Project, Hope for Homes Project, and Affordable Christmas Initiatives, the 501(c)(3) organization mobilizes everyday people to become “Hope Dealers” in their own communities.
With “Nini’s Fluff & Fold,” Kehlani isn’t just dropping a hit song; she’s reminding us that sometimes, the smallest acts of service — like helping a mom check “laundry” off her to-do list — can make the biggest impact. And in true DMV fashion, we’ll be showing up fresh, folded, and full of gratitude.
