At a service event hosted at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Utah, Nu Skin Enterprises welcomed its sales leaders as well as representatives from local organizations MTN OPS, Utah Jazz, Hunger Fight, Convoy of Hope and Ashbury Automotive Group to fill the convention center as they packed 550,000 healthy meal kits to support children dealing with food insecurity across the US.
The 2,196 people who participated set a new Guinness World Records title for the Most People Packing Meal Kits in 24 hours.
“Forty years ago, Nu Skin was built on a foundation to being a force for good in the world,” said Ryan Napierski, Nu Skin President and CEO. “Our journey has been nothing short of incredible, and to celebrate, we wanted to give back to the community in a record-setting way. Being a force for good in this world is at the heart of everything that we do, and we look forward to continuing to give back in the years to come.”
This new world record is one of many Nu Skin philanthropic efforts. Since the launch of its Nourish the Children initiative in 2002, Nu Skin has provided 850 million meals to children in more than 65 countries. The company’s sales leaders, customers and employees purchase VitaMeals, a nutrient-dense food formulated to meet the nutritional needs of malnourished children, to provide food for children in need through its global charity partners.
“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,” Napierski said. “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.”
