A big thank you to everyone who has already downloaded the app and continues to promote its benefits across their teams.
We also appreciate those who took the time to check in on their wellbeing and participate in the Sonder wellbeing competition—your engagement has been fantastic.

“I downloaded the app following a colleague’s recommendation and regularly complete the monthly wellbeing check-in. I like how it tailors your profile and provides relevant information—there’s always room to improve your wellbeing. I also appreciate the privacy compared to other EAPs and the ability to explore topics at your own pace.”
Daniel Ingram-Contract Manager
“I downloaded the app after it was promoted at a PFM Operational Leaders Forum. The notifications prompting you to read articles are really useful, and I’ve found them worthwhile. I also booked my flu vaccine through the app.”
