Maximising Your Impact!

Donate VitaMeal and . . .

Your donations multiply

Your donation is increased with a corporate match programme from Nu SkinŽ.1

You bring children to school

VitaMeal donations are generally distributed through school programmes because parents living in poverty will often send their children to school for a free meal, rather than keep them home to work.

You ensure a consistent flow of food

As a social business initiative, Nourish the ChildrenŽ facilitates consistent and increasing food donations by offering an incentive to buy, donate and promote VitaMeal.2 This commission is included in the price of the food and allows distributors to invest their time and resources to encourage others to join the cause against malnutrition.3

You build economic opportunity

VitaMeal plants in Malawi and China reduce transportation costs and boost local economies.

You contribute to self-sufficiency

Some of the proceeds from VitaMeal purchases are donated to the Nu Skin Force for Good FoundationŽ to fund agricultural education at Mtalimanja Village in Malawi. Increased farm production could someday alleviate the need for food assistance in Malawi.

  1. For every donation of the five-bag option, Nu SkinŽ adds one bag, feeding an additional child for 30 days. For every eight bags donated via the one and two-bag options, the company adds one bag.
  2. Nu SkinŽ is a for-profit distributor of nutritional and skin care products in 50 countries and is traded on the New York Stock exchange (NUS). See the published annual report at http://www.nuskinenterprises.com. Nourish the ChildrenŽ is an initiative of Nu SkinŽ. This programme leverages the strength and staying power of a for-profit corporation in cooperation with the charitable donations programme and logistical distribution programmes of Feed The Children to help solve the complex world problem of feeding malnourished children. The price charged by Nu SkinŽ for VitaMeal includes the costs of manufacturing, general overhead, distribution, sales and commissions to Nu SkinŽ distributors, as well as a reasonable profit margin. Total commissions paid to Nu SkinŽ distributors average slightly more than 40 percent of Nu SkinŽ’s total product sales.
  3. The commission for VitaMeal includes a specialised bonus not offered for any other company product. Distributors and customers who commit to ongoing support and encourage others to do the same are recognised as Nourish the ChildrenŽ Ambassadors or Chief Ambassadors.
