OF GREATER LOS ANGELES

LOS ANGELES (June 24, 2009) - For the seventh consecutive year, Bryan's Cleaners & Laundry will support the Make-A-Wish Foundation's wish granting efforts by donating twenty-five cents from each item cleaned from July 1-15 towards the cost of children's wishes. The fundraiser has generated a total of over $30,000 since it began in 2002, and Bryan's is looking forward to adding to the total number of wishes it has sponsored in those years.

“We appreciate Bryan's Cleaner's dedication to the children our organization serves,” said Brooke Dafesh, Events Manager for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Los Angeles. ‘Their annual fundraiser has made a big impact on our ability to grant wishes for children from all across Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley.”

“Sponsoring a wish each year has been very meaningful for our company and our customers,” said Scott Bell, president of Bryan's Cleaners & Laundry. “The goal to fund a wish for a child with a life-threatening medical condition makes the campaign more personal and impactful for everyone.”

All four Bryan's Cleaners & Laundry locations will be participating in the fundraiser:

• 2446 E. Foothill Boulevard, Pasadena
• 544 S. Arroyo Parkway, Pasadena
• 2336 N. Lake Avenue, Altadena
• 1461 San Marino Avenue, San Marino
