Maria

Maria comes once every month and a half for a deep, deep cleaning. She is probably one of the sweetest, kindest, most gentle women you'll meet. She is a hard worker and most importantly, a miracle worker.

She works for the "Si Se Peude!" women's cooperative. A group of immigrant women who have come together to create a women-run, women-owned, eco-friendly housecleaning business. The best part is that 100% of the fee goes to the member who does the work.

I wanted to just dedicate one post to her because of the incredible work that they do. It's so nice to see self-initiated and self-run projects and I think we should encourage and support them. This is one of the reasons I just really love NYC.
