Foam Laundry Named Winner of the HAVN Startup Scholarship

# Foam Laundry Named Winner of the HAVN Startup Scholarship **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE** *Salt Lake City, Utah* — Foam Laundry has been named the winner of the HAVN Startup Scholarship, a community-voted competition recognizing the most promising startup in the Salt Lake City area. More than 1,000 votes were cast across four finalists. Foam earned the most. As the scholarship recipient, Foam receives six months of fully-included workspace inside HAVN, one of Salt Lake City's premier coworking environments. That includes a private office, access to HAVN's meeting rooms, gym, rooftop pool, and curated events, and daily proximity to a community of founders, operators, and builders. --- ## The Vote That Made It Happen The competition came down to four finalists: Foam, PinPark, Planster, and Hummingbird. All four earned their spot on merit. The margin was close. Over 1,000 members of the Salt Lake City community showed up to vote, and according to HAVN Community Director Jeff Lasson, the level of passion and support across all four finalists was unlike anything the competition had seen before. To every single person who voted, shared, or sent a message of support: this win belongs to you as much as it belongs to us. Salt Lake City has shown up for Foam at every stage of this journey, and we do not take that lightly. --- ## Why This Win Matters Foam exists to solve one of the most reliably miserable parts of modern life: laundry. We pick up your clothes, wash and fold them, and deliver them back to you, usually the same day. Starting at $24.99 per week, it is the kind of service that pays for itself the moment you stop spending Saturdays at a laundromat or waiting on a slow in-unit machine. We built Foam for the people of Salt Lake City. Busy professionals. Young families. Students. Anyone who would rather spend their hours on something that actually matters to them. Carson Young, founder of Foam Laundry, said after the announcement: 'Salt Lake City has been behind us from the very beginning. This scholarship is proof that what we are building resonates with people here. We are going to use every resource HAVN gives us to grow faster, serve more customers, and keep raising the bar for what a laundry service can be.' --- ## What HAVN Means for Foam's Next Chapter HAVN is not just an office. It is an environment designed around the belief that the future of work is connection, collaboration, and community. Moving into HAVN puts the Foam team inside that ecosystem, surrounded by mentors and fellow founders who have built real companies. For a lean, fast-moving team, that kind of access accelerates everything. We expect the next six months inside HAVN to be the most productive period in Foam's history. --- ## Honoring the Finalists PinPark, Planster, and Hummingbird each brought something compelling to this competition. The Salt Lake City startup scene is stronger because of what all four of these teams are building. We are proud to have competed alongside them and we are rooting for every one of them. --- ## About Foam Laundry Foam is Salt Lake City's laundry pickup and delivery service.
