Cleaning for a Reason Recognition Program

At the ARCSI/ISSA Convention last week, the Cleaning for a Reason Foundation held its 2nd annual Partner Breakfast on Friday morning. It was FANTASTIC! All partners who attended received a beautifully designed certificate of participation to frame and hang in their offices. I had the honor of presenting those awards to our sister partners. As of Friday we now have 340 Partners in 47 states and 5 in Canada. We were priviledged to have 5 attendees from Australia also attend. I believe that by the end of the year, we could very well reach our 500 goal.

The Cleaning for a Reason Foundation presented the Remembrance Award to locally owned Professional Housecleaning Services owner Shawn Day (Chesterland, Ohio), whose company cleaned 17 cancer patients this last year, giving away over $4000.00 worth of services to those women in need of help. I am so proud that yet another OHIO Partner is honored with such an award! Shawn also received a pink Oreck vacuum donated to the foundation and an Osprey floor cleaner which was also donated. Congratulations Shawn!

Also recognized was Kathy Gage who was instrumental in securing a $10,000.00 donation to the foundation that will help us recruit more maid services to help with the incredible demand we are receiving. See each week, we actually are turning down 50% of the requests we are receiving simply because we don't have enough maid services to help. 50%!

Please, if you have a maid service, ask them if they are cleaning for a reason.
