Ashley Ruiz introduces her work with The Laundry Project, a non profit organization offering free laundry to those in need. She discusses how she became drawn to this specific initiative and how important the ripple effect is of free laundry on the underserved families The Laundry Project benefits.

Ashley Ruiz sits down with country star Lee Brice to discuss the importance of clean laundry and how a small act of kindness can go such a long day. Lee is introduced to the necessities behind all Laundry Project events, how expensive clean laundry is and how recipients benefit from the project. Lee and Ashley get hands on and provide quarters and detergent to those in need.

Songwriters Billy Montana and Adam Wood join Lee Brice to craft a song based on Ashley Ruiz's story. Lee fills the guys in on his day with Ashley and how he was inspired by her life's work. Billy and Adam help Lee turn his inspiration into a beautiful country song with lyrics that parallel Ashley's mission.
