| HISTORY The need for Kleenfeet became clear when a home construction friend complained how hard it was to keep newly finished floors clean and scratch-free. The co-founders considered how a home's carpeting and floor surfaces are continuously under stress from utility workers such as plumbers, electricians, gardeners, delivery people, or visitors on a snowy day. KLEENFEET was launched in June 2001. PRESS In 2002, Tony Soprano's sister Janice of HBO's "The Sopranos" threw her boyfriend down the stairs for not taking off his shoes before stepping on her carpet. In 2003, Detectives Goren and Eames of hit show "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" wore blue shoecovers to enter a home to interview a murder witness. Did they foresee this high-profile demand? The Kleenfeet founders say "Yes". OFFICERS President Lynn Harmonay and VP Jean Cameron-Smith can add to the many reasons for providing the Kleenfeet covers. Ms. Harmonay has been developing patient care programs & business/marketing plans for major medical institutions for more than twenty years. She can attest that the benefits of an efficiently designed clean shoe cover in both hospital and home care settings are immeasurable. Ms. Cameron-Smith is a successful real estate agent in Westchester County, NY. She understands that many prospective home buyers are reluctant to remove their shoes. And how prospective home sellers want to protect their floors and carpets. |

Marjorie Bovill, founder and "inventor" of
Kleenfeet. She died in August 2003 following a
seven-year battle with ovarian cancer.
Marjorie was inspired to create Kleenfeet while
receiving stem cell treatment at the City of
Hope Hospital, where visitors were required to

Marjorie was inspired to create Kleenfeet while
receiving stem cell treatment at the City of
Hope Hospital, where visitors were required to
wear gowns, mask and shoe covers.
At home, visitors were also required to wear protective clothing
and shoe covers for infection control. Marjorie saw Kleenfeet as
a way to help protect against germs and dirt.
She had no way to know how perfect Kleenfeet would prove to
be for uses ranging from real estate open houses to appliance
delivery and repair - for any time there is a need to keep floors
and carpets clean, and dirt and germs out!
Kleenfeet has expanded its line to include protective and
medical clothing in addition to its best-selling shoe and boot
covers.
Marjorie passed away just as Kleenfeet received its first order.
But her mission continues through the work of Kleenfeet.
Her determination to find a cure for the deadly disease gave her
a purpose, one which Kleenfeet shares in its small way by
contributing a percentage of all proceeds to the Marjorie Bovill
Cancer Research Fund. We ask that you consider making a
donation to support this worthwhile cause. If there is a special
program at your company that we may work with to make our
efforts more meaningful, please let us know.
Thank you for your consideration.
