Cleaning For A Reason Week Begins Today!

by Jennifer | No Comments Wednesday, April 18, 2012

As we have mentioned before, we work with the organization called Cleaning For A Reason that provides free house cleanings for women with cancer who are undergoing treatments. We are very passionate about this, because having a clean home while dealing with cancer is so important, but can be almost impossible to manage with so much to handle already.

Starting today, in conjunction with the Mayor of Plano Phil Dyer, we are thrilled to announce that this Cleaning For A Reason Week. For more information, Go Here To Our Press Release!

Women Making A Difference In Plano

by Jennifer | No Comments Thursday, March 29, 2012

This charity was started by Mary Beth King 2 years ago, and has gained great momentum! Basically, everyone gets together quarterly, all participants gives a check for $100 and a vote is cast for which nonprofit the money will go to. When a charity is selected, the woman advocating the charity gets to deliver the check! It’s so easy anyone could do it! Especially when it is getting more and more difficult to commit as much time and money as we would all like to saving the world.

For more information on the charity and how to get involved, check out This Article From The Plano Star Courrier, and lets help the community one charity at a time!

Keep the Lead Out Plano-Frisco

by Scarlette | No Comments Wednesday, October 20, 2010

Lead has been in the news quite a bit lately, with Exide Technologies as the focal point.  Exide Technologies operates a lead smelter just south of downtown Frisco.  Residents of Frisco and other surrounding cities such as Plano should be aware that this plant has some of the highest lead emissions in the country.

There are things you can do in your own home to help protect yourself and your family from lead exposure.  The recommendations below are from the EPA 

  • Clean floors, window frames, window sills, and other surfaces weekly. Use a mop, sponge, or paper towel with warm water and a general all-purpose cleaner or a cleaner made specifically for lead.
  • Cleaning dirty or dusty areas.
  • Wash children’s hands often, especially before they eat and before nap time and bed time.
  • Keep play areas clean. Wash bottles, pacifiers, toys, and stuffed animals regularly.
  • Clean or remove shoes before entering your home to avoid tracking in lead from soil.
  • Make sure children eat healthy and nutritious meals as recommended by the National Dietary Guidelines. Children with good diets absorb less lead.
