Chelsea Avondale, a Canadian home insurance group, raised a Series C funding of undisclosed amount.

The round was led by MSD Partners, L.P. and also included American Family Ventures, among others. In conjunction with the completion of the investment round, Dan Bitar, Managing Director and co-head of MSD Growth, has joined the Chelsea Avondale board of directors.
