A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION TO A GLOBAL PROBLEM

VITAMEAL: A LIFESAVING MEAL

Malnourished children are missing key nutrients in their diets, which can hinder brain, bone, and immune system development. Most humanitarian food consists of mainly grains, such as corn, which may lack other essential nutrients necessary for healthy development. As part of the overall development of VitaMeal, Nu Skin’s nutritional scientists determined the ingredients and rations that are well-suited for a malnourished child. The result is VitaMeal, a nutrient-dense food fortified with essential vitamins and minerals. Learn how Vitameal is helping children in Malawi.

MEET SARAH.

Sweet Sarah has been enrolled in Convoy of Hope’s Children’s Feeding program since she was just 4 years old. Her father died when she was young, and her mother was too young to care for her. Unable to provide the support that she needed, Sarah’s grandmother placed her in an orphanage where she received VitaMeal as one of her meals. Sarah is now 13 and getting ready to go into the 7th grade. When she’s not participating in school activities, she’s usually drawing. Sarah hopes to become an artist one day, and because of VitaMeal, she has the energy to pursue her dream.

Sarah is just one of the many children who receives VitaMeal thanks to those who purchase and donate. Many of these kids live in areas with limited access to clean water and health services. Their families rely on the meals these children receive each day. When asked how she feels now, Sarah says, “I feel good! I eat two to three times a day and have energy to play. Thank you for your support.” Thank you for helping change the world—one child at a time.

VITAMEAL: MORE THAN JUST A MEAL

The Nourish the Children initiative partners with third-party, non-profit organizations that specialize in delivering relief where it is most needed. In addition to distributing VitaMeal, these partners leverage the positive effect of VitaMeal to create an even greater impact. For example, in many countries, VitaMeal is part of the school lunch programs that encourage families to send their children to school to gain an education.

Nu Skin manufactures VitaMeal in Malawi, China, and the United States to help reduce transportation costs and boost local economies.

VitaMeal is used in many ways to help malnourished children and has become more than just a meal; it brings hope to many young lives around the world.
