Solomon Dixon Foundation
The Solomon Dixon Foundation, Inc. is a 501 (c) (3) tax exempt nonprofit organization in the Washington D.C metropolitan area; which focus on cleaning homes and inspiring people going through treatment, whether chemotherapy or radiation. We clean homes for men, women and children for the whole duration of treatment. The services are based on the general cleaning method (listed below) and we can cater to some specific needs. We also share inspiring stories and give flowers and books from donations. We strive to provide a clean home as well as equip and educate patients about how to strengthen themselves internally and externally to help defeat the disease.
This foundation covers the total cost to clean a home and make it FREE for someone currently going through chemotherapy and/or radiation. We also use environmentally safe, non toxic cleaning products, because it is safe for the environment as well as health friendly. Most people undergoing chemotherapy are very sensitive to smells and really need to have non hazardous cleaning products. The purpose will give patients who are struggling with the energy to clean their home some assistance not only for their home, but for their health. People who are having such treatments need to have a clean environment but find it difficult to keep up with their homes themselves. This foundation will make it possible for them to have a clean home without having to lift a finger.
