Canary + Arosa: Prioritizing financial well-being of care professionals with people-centered innovation
In 2020, our partnership arose out of an acute need to support their frontline workers in the face of a global pandemic. But, at its core, prioritizing an employee relief fund has always been much more than a solution for a moment in time. It was fundamental to Arosa’s commitment to their values and differentiating themselves as a best-in-class employer of caregivers.
“Knowing we are there for each other that way, being able to help — and that gratitude and appreciation for having something like this at a time when they need it — to me, those benefits are immeasurable.”
