LOS ANGELES, Nov. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Herbalife Nutrition
Foundation (HNF) announced today it will commit an additional
$1 million to expand its Casa
Herbalife program to more than 20 new community partners who
provide access to good nutrition for children all over the world.
The Casa Herbalife program, established in 2005, currently serves
more than 100,000 children in more than 50 countries, including
orphanages, after school centers, and other community
organizations.
"On Giving Tuesday, and every day, we should remind ourselves of
the often-cited verse 'To whom much is given, much is expected'
because we all have a responsibility to care for our neighbors,
especially the most vulnerable amongst us," said Alan Hoffman, president of the Herbalife
Nutrition Foundation. "Thanks to the generosity of the Herbalife
Nutrition community, this $1 million
grant will help at least one vulnerable population, children, lead
healthier and happier lives."
Furthermore, the foundation's partnerships with local charities
expanded once again in 2018 with the opening of seven new Casas in
Australia, Malaysia, New
Zealand, Singapore,
South Korea, and two in
Vietnam, bringing the number of
partners to more than 130 organizations.
