Ms. Molly Foundation Brings Awareness to Communities and Shelters Nationwide.

Ann Arbor, MI – Molly Maid raised a record $167,836 to support the Ms. Molly Foundation in 2010 by offering innovative ways for franchisees to participate and support the annual effort during October. Donations from customers were also up 20 percent over 2009 and these funds will provide much-needed support to over 110 domestic violence shelters and safe houses, helping victims of the nation’s most under-reported crime.

The overall 2010 Ms. Molly Foundation fundraising effort represents a 14 percent increase over last year’s sum. The Ms. Molly Foundation has raised more than $978,000 since 1996, and the company is committed to continuing to grow levels of local support and awareness. Molly Maid franchise owners chose to support the system-wide cause after witnessing the prevalence of domestic violence among their own employees. The drive happens each October, which is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
