Helping cancer patients through the gift of a clean home
Cancer treatment asks enough of a family. Maid in America partners with Cleaning for a Reason to help eligible patients across Northwest Georgia spend less energy on housework and more time on healing, rest, and the people they love.

A mission close to home
More time and energy for what matters most
Maid in America was founded in 1996 with a commitment to cleaner, healthier homes. That commitment became even more personal after owner Vicky Bates faced breast cancer herself.
Vicky understands how exhausting treatment and recovery can be—and how meaningful practical support feels during a difficult season. Through Cleaning for a Reason, Maid in America has donated professional home cleaning to local patients, helping reduce one everyday burden for families across Northwest Georgia.

After my own breast cancer diagnosis, giving back to families facing cancer became deeply personal. When we remove the burden of cleaning, families can focus more of their energy on healing and being together.
