Cleaning for a Reason Welcomes You’ve Got Maids as First Corporate Franchise Partner

July 13, 2022 Cleaning for a Reason Welcomes You’ve Got Maids as First Corporate Franchise Partner

Cleaning for a Reason, an ISSA Charities™ signature program that provides clean homes for cancer patients, today announced it is collaborating with You’ve Got Maids to elevate its services and bring relief to more people experiencing cancer. As Cleaning for a Reason’s first corporate franchise partner, You’ve Got Maids has dedicated itself to expanding the company’s work by endorsing new franchisees and raising awareness of the mission through marketing activities, social media, and events. 

“You’ve Got Maids is thrilled to announce its corporate partnership with Cleaning for a Reason. To date, individual locations have contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of service through Cleaning for a Reason and elevating to a brand wide collaboration is a great next step for both organizations,” said You’ve Got Maids President Joseph Berger. “We hope to be able to further support the mission of providing free home cleaning to patients battling cancer.”

You’ve Got Maids is in its second decade of franchising and currently operates dozens of locations across 18 states. Since the start of the partnership, it has donated more than US$270,000 by performing over 1,600 free house cleanings for cancer patients. The company ensures the highest quality services, as each maid is thoroughly screened through a rigorous recruitment process and completes Maid University ™ training. It is also committed to using eco-friendly cleaning products and systems that are healthy for cancer patients, their families, and the environment.

Berger understands how challenging simple tasks like cleaning can be for cancer patients, as he has experienced more than one diagnosis in his family. He encourages You’ve Got Maids franchisees and other industry leaders to partner with Cleaning for a Reason to help make a difference in communities across the nation.

“In this work we are not competitors, we’re cooperating to do good,” said Berger.

“You’ve Got Maids has already demonstrated its dedication to improving the lives of cancer patients and their families. We are grateful for this continued partnership that helps us deliver on our promise of free, quality home cleaning,” said ISSA Charities Director of Development Sandy Wolfrum. “Together, we know we can remove that burden and let cancer patients focus on what truly matters—their health and loved ones.”
