Giving Back to Our Community
At Cleangreen, our employees live, work and play on Cape Cod which is why we’re so committed to giving back to this place we call home. Throughout the year, we donate in-kind cleaning services for fundraisers that support local nonprofits helping to make Cape Cod a stronger, happier, healthier and more vibrant place. We’re particularly proud of our employees who regularly participate in charitable causes because they understand the importance of social responsibility.
Below are a few of the organizations that we proudly support. We encourage you to learn more about them and the great work they are doing in our community.
