Community: Thrive Market & Coronavirus

Thrive Market is an e-commerce membership-based retailer offering natural and organic food products. They strive to make healthy choices affordable.

The company sent the below email to their members on March 27, 2020.
It is a status update on their and their member’s kindness to assist families in need during this time of the Coronavirus. We found it inspiring:

For more than a month now, all of us here at Thrive Market have been focused on one thing: getting you the products you need to keep your families safe and healthy during this unprecedented time. But the coronavirus crisis has entered an even more serious phase over the last two weeks. As schools and businesses shut their doors and confirmed cases of COVID-19 grow, millions of families are now facing mounting hardships, from lost wages to unplanned childcare needs to potentially crippling medical expenses. To do our part, we decided last week to launch the Thrive Market COVID-19 Relief Fund, providing grocery stipends and free Thrive Market memberships to families facing health or financial hardships due to COVID-19. So far, in just 10 days, our member community has raised over $65,000 through donations at checkout—and we are matching every donation dollar for dollar.I want to extend an enormous THANK YOU to those of you who have already donated and to those of you who are planning on doing so on your next order. Your generosity inspires us—and can make a difference now more than ever. 

Even from afar, we’re all in this together.
