LOS ANGELES, Sept. 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Herbalife Nutrition
(NYSE: HLF), a premier global nutrition company, together with the
Herbalife Nutrition Foundation, today announced its partnership
expansion with Los Angeles
nonprofit, Chrysalis, an organization dedicated to helping
individuals out of poverty and homelessness. This partnership
supports ongoing programs for job placement and career development
and provides nutrition and hydration products to program
recipients. Chrysalis joins the Company's growing network of
organizations under its Nutrition for Zero Hunger (NFZH)
campaign, offering access to an array of supportive services to
help people make better choices about their futures.
"Our Nutrition for Zero Hunger program is trying to eradicate
hunger around the globe and we're happy to partner with
Chrysalis to make a greater impact in the lives of people in our
own backyard," said Alan Hoffman,
executive vice president, Global Corporate Affairs, Herbalife
Nutrition.
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization
(FAO), malnourished adults are unable to work and malnourished
children under perform in school, impacting growth and the economy.
Food insecurity and lack of nutrition education continuously
plagues the displaced and low-income communities, which
demonstrates the importance of this addition of nutrition product
donations and nutrition education to help further the success of
Chrysalis' important work.
Under the Nutrition for Zero Hunger initiative, the
Company has donated $60,000 to
support ongoing programs. Additionally, the Company provides 1,400
nutrient-dense protein bars and hydration products monthly, helping
Chrysalis to provide healthy nutrition in snacks and lunches
distributed to program members. Herbalife Nutrition will further
support Chrysalis by using its platforms as a call to action for
volunteers and to raise awareness about the needs of this growing
community.
"Working with a leading nutrition company like Herbalife
Nutrition provides an additional opportunity to incorporate
essential healthy nutrition to help fuel our client's success as
they reconnect to the workforce," said Mark
Loranger, President and CEO, Chrysalis. "During these
difficult times, the need for our services is the greatest it has
ever been, and support from community-minded corporations is needed
and appreciated."
