PROVO, Utah, April 14, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Nu Skin Enterprises (NYSE: NUS) today announced more than 150 million meals have been donated to malnourished and hungry children around the world through its innovative social enterprise, Nourish the Children. Nu Skin distributors, customers and employees, purchase and donate nutrient-dense VitaMeal(R) through a humanitarian initiative the company introduced in June 2002.

"Nourish the Children applies the rigor of successful business practices to addressing the problem of hunger in a sustainable manner, despite a slumping economy," said Steve Lund, vice chairman of Nu Skin Enterprises board of directors and executive director of Nourish the Children. "In just over seven years, we surpassed 150 million meals donated, and now we are well on our way to reaching 200 million. I am very impressed by the individual sacrifice and generosity that have accomplished this tremendous good."

    Very commendable efforts put forth by Nu Skin. It is admirable that they not only donate the line, but they themselves created it for the sole purpose of donation (OK, and a marketing tool I am sure too). I won't even get on my soapbox about NuSkin's publicity and positive press & marketing they get for this humanitarian effort. Bottom line is hungry children are worth it, and it is noble that they took a stand.
