About Because Because is re-engineering everyday consumer products and delivering them via a leading ecommerce subscription to older adults as if they were our own family. Our team consists of seasoned execs from Uber, eBay, WeWork and Gap Inc, and we are backed by Index, Khosla Ventures, Comcast Ventures and other top tier investors.

Launched by Stanford Graduates, Because was created after our founders spent countless hours tracking down supplies for their grandparents. They had to visit multiple stores and often left empty handed when needed products were out of stock. They knew they could do better for their family and all older adults. See our coverage by Forbes
