“When I discovered that 80 percent of breast cancers are related to environmental influences, I quickly implemented non-toxic green products,” said Bates. Eager to help other families impacted by cancer, she partnered with nonprofit Cleaning for a Reason.
“Since my personal breast cancer diagnosis, I have been honored to give back to my local community through Cleaning for a Reason. It has been a part of my journey to share with families, especially the women going through breast cancer, how important a clean home is to their recovery as well as reducing stress levels. When we can take away the burden of cleaning, we know that family can focus on the healing of their loved one.” |
Through the partnership with Cleaning for a Reason. Maid in America supports two homes per month for two consecutive months free of charge. This is an ongoing service to cancer patients residing in the Northwest Georgia counties of Cobb, Cherokee, Paulding, Douglas, and South Bartow.
