Caring for the Community Is Our Way of Giving Back

Cleaning for a Reason is a nonprofit organization that serves all the United States and Canada. Our mission is to give the gift of free house cleaning to women undergoing treatment for any type of cancer. Our goal is to let these brave and strong women focus on their health and treatment while we focus on, and take away the worry and work of, cleaning their homes– free of charge. We have recruited over 1,200 maid services to donate free housecleaning to women who are undergoing treatment for cancer. Since 2006, our partner maid services have volunteered their time to clean for over 22,000 women – valued at over $5,900,000.

Debbie Sardone, President and Founder, had the idea to start Cleaning For A Reason years ago when, as the owner of Buckets & Bows Maid Service, she had a call with a prospective client who told Debbie, “I won’t be able to afford that now; I’m undergoing cancer treatment” and hung up. Since Debbie had not gotten the woman’s phone number she was unable to call back to make arrangements and in that instant decided no woman undergoing cancer treatment would ever be turned away by her business. In fact, they would even be offered a free housecleaning service!

Then in 2005, Debbie shared her story with other maid services at a national cleaning industry convention. She shared that it was these women, undergoing the physical, emotional, and financial rigors of cancer treatment, who needed professional housecleaning services the most. Immediately after sharing her story, a rush of cleaning business owners expressed their interest and support.

All County Cleaning is one of the partners with Cleaning for a Reason and provides free cleanings to women that have cancer. All County Cleaning believes in giving back to our community and what better way to do that then helping out in a time of need.
