Efforts Expand with ID.me Discount Program Benefiting Nurses,
First Responders and Military
SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 18, 2020 /CNW/ -- Arlo Technologies,
Inc. (NYSE: ARLO) today announced extended support of Second
Harvest Foodbank as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely
impact millions of families. Since April, the program has
contributed 209,650 meals to feed those in need.
Extending through October, each time an Arlo Video Doorbell,
Ultra or Pro 3 Security System is purchased on Arlo.com, Arlo will
continue to provide 25 meals to Second Harvest foodbanks of Silicon
Valley – one of the largest foodbanks in the nation – and
Orange County. Second Harvest of
Silicon Valley provides more than a quarter of a million people
with food each month while the Orange
County chapter has distributed more than 379 million meals
respectively.
"With the pandemic continuing to affect individuals and
communities across the nation, we felt compelled to continue our
support of Second Harvest as they work to help impacted families
keep food on the table during these times," said Matt McRae, CEO of Arlo Technologies. "To build
on our ongoing commitment to protect and connect communities, Arlo
has also partnered with ID.me to help frontline workers watch over
their loved ones and homes while they're away."
Arlo's partnership with ID.me provides Nurses, First Responders,
Military and Veterans with a 25% discount on all products on
Arlo.com1. ID.me is the only federally certified digital
wallet that simplifies how individuals securely prove and share
their identity online. ID.me's next-generation identity platform

In addition to partnerships with Second Harvest Foodbank and

hospitals surrounding San Jose,
Calif. and Cork, Ireland,
areas where Arlo is headquartered. The company has supported
benefit concerts, such as Rockland Helping Rockland: An Interthon
for People to People, with donations of its award-winning home
security products which helped raise funds for the area's largest
food pantry.
Arlo Video Doorbells and Security Camera Systems are being
utilized as people practice social distancing for checking in on

About Second Harvest of Silicon Valley
Founded in
1974, Second Harvest of Silicon Valley is a trusted leader in
ending local hunger and is one of the largest food banks in the
nation. The organization distributes healthy groceries through a
network of 310 partners at 1,000 sites in Santa Clara and San
Mateo counties. Due to the prohibitively expensive cost of
living in Silicon Valley, hunger is at an all-time high as more and
more families are forced to sacrifice nutritious food for housing.
Second Harvest is helping to keep people healthy by providing
enough nutritious food for more than 58 million meals a year — half
of which is fresh produce. Second Harvest also connects people to
federal nutrition programs and other food resources, and advocates
for anti-hunger policies on the local, state 3 and national levels.
