For those that may not be aware, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Here at Molly Maid, we focus our charitable efforts to victims of domestic violence though our Ms. Molly Foundation. However, we are very aware of the pain that breast cancer can cause. Most of our employees, franchise owners, and corporate employees have been affected by this disease either directly or indirectly with a family member or a friend. Molly Maid would like to share resources and tips on how you can help support.
