LOCAL CLEANING COMPANY MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Cedarburg, WI – February 7, 2025 – The Cleaning Authority of Cedarburg is proud to partner with Cleaning for a Reason, a nonprofit that provides free house cleaning services to cancer patients across the United States and Canada. Through this partnership, The Cleaning Authority is strengthening its commitment to the community, offering essential support to cancer patients and their families during treatment, recovery, or hospice care.
“The Cleaning Authority of Cedarburg has worked with any number of partners over the years in an effort to give back to our community,” shared owner Chris Lanagan. “We’ve certainly cleaned for cancer patients and it’s impossible to do so without being moved by such terrible situations. Partnering with Cleaning for a Reason gives us an opportunity to better reach people in our community who need our assistance the most. Cancer is a terrible disease and if a clean house can offer just a small ray of sunshine in an otherwise bleak day, it’s well worth our efforts to do so.”
Through this partnership, The Cleaning Authority of Cedarburg provides complimentary home cleaning services to two cancer patients each month for two consecutive months. This ongoing service is available to cancer patients residing in the Milwaukee Northshore.
The Cleaning Authority’s corporate collaboration with Cleaning for a Reason highlights its strong dedication to assisting cancer patients. Since 2009, its franchise locations have donated professional home cleanings to 1,559 cancer patients, contributing services valued at $598,382. By providing clean, healthy living spaces, The Cleaning Authority helps ease the burden for patients, allowing them to focus on healing.
