Cornerstone Cleaning's Giving Story
We are excited to share our story of how and why we choose to invest in our community.
Who are we?
Cornerstone Cleaning provides residential and commercial cleaning in Harford, Baltimore, and Cecil counties.
We have been voted Best of Harford two consecutive years in a row, and we received honorable mention in The Baltimore Sun’s Best! We are well into our eleventh year of business. We are located in Fallston, Maryland
"My love for cleaning began at an early age when I would follow my grandmother around while she did her housework. What hooked me was that great sense of accomplishment at the end of the day." -Owner
Why do we give?
At Cornerstone Cleaning, we believe that people battling cancer shouldn't have to battle a dirty home as well.
We know that having a clean home makes a positive difference in the lives of home owners. We see and hear it each week from our clients. Through our partnership with Cleaning for a Reason, we positively impact the lives of patients battling cancer.
"When my grandmother passed away from cancer, it was devastating as she was the pillar of our family. After having started Cornerstone Cleaning, I learned of Cleaning for a Reason. This nonprofit connects patients undergoing cancer treatments with cleaning services that donate their time and materials in cleaning the patients’ homes." -Owner
What do we give?
Cornerstone Cleaning offers free cleaning services to those battling cancer.
Since 2015, we have donated 141 cleanings to 29 patients. In 2019, we held our first Cleaning for a Reason benefit. Through ticket sales and silent auction, we were able to donate $1,100 to Cleaning for a Reason.
In addition to Cleaning for a Reason, Cornerstone supports the Boys & Girls Club of Cecil County, various local churches, local pet non-profits, and local named scholarships.
How do we give?
Cleaning For A Reason is a nonprofit organization that serves the United States and Canada.
Their mission is to give the gift of free cleaning to homes where a family member is undergoing treatment for any type of cancer. Their goal is to let these brave and strong men and women focus on their health and treatment. They have recruited over 1,200 maid services to donate free housecleanings. Since 2006, their partner maid services have volunteered their time to clean for over 17,000 patients – valued at over $5,000,000.
"Cornerstone Cleaning is a wonderful family owned business. We were so blessed to have technicians from Cornerstone help us during our cancer journey. They are local community members of Cleaning for a Reason and volunteer their services to help keep cancer patients' home comfortable for a designated time during treatment and recovery. The team is highly professional and competent and we continue to appreciate Cornerstone's services as regular customers now." - Rhonda of Stewartstown
