The Window Cleaner Relief Fund was created to aid window cleaners that have been injured on the job. In the event of death or permanent injury, funds can go to the family of the deceased.
We are opening the fund with a $10,000.00 initial pool. If you or someone you know is a window cleaner and has been injured on the job, fill out the details below to be considered.
While we certainly understand and sympathize with the struggles of starting a business, affording tools and other similar matters, The Window Cleaner Relief Fund is only for window cleaners that are injured on the job or funding family members in the event of death. We'd like to reserve funds for these serious situations and so we will not be funding anyone for tools, equipment, etc.
Anthony J. D'Angelo once said, "Without a sense of caring, there can be no sense of community." We have seen the community come together many times over the years when a fellow brother or sister has had a fall, tragedy, accident or other unfortunate event. We want to take this one step further with the Window Cleaner Relief Fund. When the people of our industry come together, anything is possible. Stay safe, be kind and above all else, be a force for good!

"Brett fell 20 feet off a ladder two weeks ago. He snapped his femur in half and broke his heel. He had emergency surgery the next morning and now can’t put any weight on his right foot for at least three months, which means he can’t really walk and he definitely can’t drive. They say it may be six months before he can return to work. Needless to say, although I am working full time, I have had to (and will continue to need to) take off work for hospital visits and doctor’s appointments and have very little PTO left, and my income cannot support our little family and we need some help. Brett gets a little help from Worker’s Comp, but it won’t last long and it isn’t much. It’s definitely better than nothing though! Any little bit helps. Thank you!"

"My dad took an awful fall off nearly a 3-story roof. He snapped his ankles, and broke many bones in his feet. We have been beyond thankful that he is alive and that nothing else was broken. We are currently in the process of waiting for the swelling in his ankles to go down so they can proceed with his surgery. The expenses have been a bit much as my dad is the main head of income in the family. We are trying to keep his window cleaning business up and running as much as we can. We are unable to make as much as he does but are doing what we can for the time being. We would be absolutely blessed if you would give whatever you feel led to give."

"This GoFundMe was set up to help pay for the funeral and memorial expenses of Edi Canedo, a San Diego window cleaner, who tragically passed away on January 26th, 2022. Edi was always making people laugh with his sly jokes. He lived with a smile on his face and love in his heart. He was a father of two with a baby due in May. He also leaves behind a multitude of family and friends who loved him dearly. He was a loyal friend, he loved fiercely and worked hard for his family. This fundraiser has been set up by close friends. These funds will be used to help pay for his memorial services and will be passed to the funeral home and necessary vendors."
