Nu Skin Surpasses 850 Million Meals Purchased and Donated

PROVO, Utah - July 26, 2024 - Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: NUS), a global leader in beauty and wellness, today announced it has reached the milestone of providing 850 million meals for children since 2002 through its Nourish the Children initiative. Malnourished children in more than 65 countries around the world have been fed VitaMeal,* a nutrient-dense food, from one of the company's third-party charity partners after Nu Skin sales leaders, customers or employees purchase and donate bags of food.  

"When we started the Nourish the Children initiative more than 20 years ago, we could have never imagined the sustained impact it would have on so many children," said Ryan Napierski, president and CEO at Nu Skin. "It's humbling to think about the impact of providing 850 million meals to malnourished children around the world. The collective good that we do as a company is a testament to our sales force, customers and employees."

About VitaMeal 

Unlike simple grains with a mostly caloric benefit, VitaMeal is a nutrient-dense food scientifically formulated to meet the nutritional needs of malnourished children. As part of the overall development of VitaMeal, Nu Skin's nutritional scientists determined the ingredients and ratios that are well suited for a malnourished child. The result is a product that provides essential vitamins and minerals, with a balance of carbohydrates, protein, fat and fiber. 

About Nourish the Children 

In 2002, Nu Skin took action to address the tragedy of childhood hunger and malnutrition with the development of the Nourish the Children initiative with a highly nutritious food known as VitaMeal, developed by Nu Skin's nutritional scientists. The company's sales leaders, customers and employees can purchase VitaMeal and then choose to keep it or donate the food to a third-party nonprofit organization that specializes in distributing relief to those suffering from malnutrition and famine.
