Ethos Secures $1.3M Seed Round to Expand Culturally Competent Home & Community Care

Ethos, the Boston-based not-for-profit organization dedicated to serving over 2,000 elderly and disabled individuals, is excited to announce a successful funding round that has raised $1,300,000. This significant investment will empower Ethos to expand its comprehensive portfolio of services—including care management, crisis intervention, and nutrition programs—to further promote personal well-being, dignity, and independence among the community members it serves. Since its founding in 1973, Ethos has been a pillar of support within the community, operating on an annual budget of $14 million with a dedicated team of over 100 staff members and 250 community volunteers. With programs ranging from Home Care and Protective Services to innovative initiatives such as the award-winning AgeWell West Roxbury and the groundbreaking LGBT Aging Project, Ethos has consistently demonstrated a commitment to culturally competent and affordable care that meets the diverse needs of its clientele. The newly secured funds will be directed toward enhancing these critical services, expanding outreach initiatives, and integrating cutting-edge approaches to care management and community engagement. Moreover, the infusion of capital will support the development of strategic partnerships and technological innovations designed to streamline service delivery and improve care outcomes. By addressing the unique needs of clients through programs like Meals on Wheels, Long Term Care Ombudsman services, Companionship, and Caregiver Support, Ethos continues to set new standards in home and community-based care. This funding round marks an important milestone in Ethos' ongoing mission to enrich the lives of those it serves, fostering a network of support that is as inclusive as it is essential.
