I wanted to share a report that was on the local news today.The story of this organization's inception as well as their mission is very inspiring.

This newly formed nonprofit, Cleaning for A Reason Foundation offers free professional housecleaning, and maid services to improve the lives of women undergoing treatment for cancer.

Mike Farney, the executive director of the national organization, said the nonprofit group was founded in 2006 when Debbie Sardone, a Texas woman who owned a cleaning service, received a call from a cancer patient inquiring about housekeeping. The caller asked the price, said she couldn't afford it and then hung up without leaving a name or a number.

Vowing never to let that happen again, Sardone began sharing her experience at conferences. She organized the nonprofit Cleaning for a Reason Foundation and began signing up cleaning businesses across the country and in Canada. Today, there are 470 partners in 49 states, Farney said. About 20 to 30 new partners sign up every month, Farney said.

If you know of anyone who could benefit from the services of this organization, their website is: http://www.cleaningforareason.org
