Benefitting Canswerlink

I’ve chosen to support this unique non-profit by donating 10% of the profits from Do It Gorgeously, to help them expand their much needed services.

Canswerlink helps make cancer patients and their family’s lives more manageable by providing them with a non-toxic housecleaning service while the patient is going through treatment. This service is provided free of charge and is offered to a patient regardless of their type of cancer and for as long as they are in treatment (Chemo, radiation and/or Hospice).

The founders have a beautiful vision:
“Our organization is founded on the belief that in order to help a patient heal, we must address the need to care for everyone affected by cancer – not only the patients but the family and friends that support them. When a patient is diagnosed with cancer and the priorities shift, housecleaning can often be the last thing on the mind. We believe that a clean home has an emotional affect that lifts the patient’s spirits and renews the patient’s mental health, crucial steps in total mind and body recovery.

Canswerlink believes that only non-toxic cleaning products should be used in everyone’s homes. By using only non-toxic products, we can help to protect other family members from being exposed to toxins that may contribute to the development of certain cancers. We are concerned with the Earth’s health as well. When Canswerlink cleans your home we do not pollute the water, air or ground. It is our goal to teach by example the benefits and ease of going green in the home.

Lastly, we believe in a pay it forward approach to healing and wellness. Once patients have healed, we encourage them to volunteer with Canswerlink. This gives them a chance to give back directly to those that have helped them. Knowing they will have an opportunity to help other patients while they are in treatment is uplifting. Knowing that we encourage everyone to give back by volunteering with us gives the patient a sense of strength and self-respect. Knowing this, Canswerlink works relentlessly with determination and ambition to see healing spread and disease diminished.

The ultimate goal for Canswerlink is to be nationwide, helping every cancer patient and their support network in need of our services. Cancer doesn’t discriminate and neither does Canswerlink.
