1-800-SWEEPER Makes Donation to the American Red Cross
February 26, 2018, Toledo, Ohio: The 1-800-SWEEPER Foundation, the charitable foundation of 1-800-SWEEPER, was honored to give back to the community with a $5,000 donation to the American Red Cross at the National Pavement Expos’ Sweepers Night Out in Cleveland, OH on February 7, 2018. 1-800-SWEEPER is a nationwide service network of independently owned power sweeping companies, with over 50 company members, and founded the 1-800-SWEEPER Foundation in 2016.
The 1-800-SWEEPER Foundation is not done yet! They have joined forces with Schwarze Industries to sponsor a Hurricane Recovery Raffle to aid in disaster relief from the series of devastating hurricanes that hit the United States in late 2017. The Hurricane Recovery Raffle offers a chance to win a brand new Schwarze Supervac Updraft power sweeper. Raffle tickets are still available, and will continue to be, until the goal of raising $100,000 is reached. Tickets can be purchased by visiting: https://raffles.ticketprinting.com/raffle/6318-Schwarze-Industries-2018-Hurricane-Recovery-Raffle/.
"1-800-SWEEPER Foundation was founded because 1-800-SWEEPER members had a desire to do more for the communities we serve,” states Mike Lucht, Founding Member of 1-800-SWEEPER. "It is heartbreaking to see all that has been lost and destroyed as a result of the 2017 hurricanes. We knew we had to do something and decided the raffle would be an excellent way to contribute to the relief efforts.”
“The Red Cross is pleased to accept such a generous donation from the 1-800-SWEEPER Foundation,” declares Michael N. Parks, Regional CEO of Northeast Ohio American Red Cross. “The hurricane recovery and relief work will continue for many years, and this contribution will help in restoring homes, businesses, and lives.”
