FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LOCAL CLEANING COMPANY MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Detroit Lakes, MN – December 20, 2024 – Dirt Divas Cleaning Service, LLC is proud to announce its new partnership with Cleaning for a Reason, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing free house cleaning to cancer patients undergoing treatment, surgery, or hospice care across the United States and Canada. This collaboration marks the beginning of Dirt Divas’ mission to extend its services beyond traditional cleaning, offering support and relief to individuals and families facing the challenges of cancer. Owner and CEO Amelia Schermerhorn is excited to launch this initiative.

“We have all witnessed the immense toll that cancer takes on patients and their caregivers—not only physically, but also emotionally and mentally,” says Schermerhorn. “The journey can be overwhelming, and even everyday tasks like cleaning the home can become a heavy burden during such a challenging time. A clean home can provide a sense of comfort, relief, and control amidst the chaos, giving patients and their families one less worry to face. This is what inspired me to partner with Cleaning for a Reason. It perfectly aligns with my desire to use my skills and resources to truly make a difference in people’s lives.”

Through partnership with Cleaning for a Reason, Dirt Divas Cleaning Service, LLC supports two cancer patients homes each month for two consecutive months free of charge. This is an ongoing service to cancer patients residing within a 30-mile radius of Detroit Lakes.
