Unfortunately, since the coronavirus pandemic has escalated, we’ve written a lot about startups that have had to lay off employees.
Those stories are as painful for us to write as they are for you to read. But there is some encouraging news to share.
Last week, I reported on startup Better.com’s goal to hire laid off hospitality workers (like 150 a month) to help it meet increased demand for its digital lending offering. I also covered Pager and hims & hers’ boosting their telehealth offerings to help alleviate the strain on the current health care infrastructure.
Over the weeks, I’ve also received tons of emails about companies trying to give back to their communities, or help laid off workers, or just help people in general during this unsettling and (very) scary global health crisis.
