Herbalife, in collaboration with NDTV, has launched the 'Nutrition Matters' campaign, emphasizing the pivotal role of nutrition in fostering healthier lifestyles. This initiative highlights community-driven efforts to enhance health, well-being, and sustainability.
At the heart of Herbalife's mission is the belief that strong communities are the foundation for a healthier, more sustainable future. Ajay Khanna, Managing Director at Herbalife India, underscored the company's commitment to creating opportunities and empowering individuals to take control of their well-being and livelihoods. This vision extends beyond health and wellbeing to encompass comprehensive community development.
The Herbalife Family Foundation has a strong partnership with SOS Children's Villages India. This collaboration focuses on the holistic development of children through education and wellness programs. Sumanta Kar, CEO of SOS Children's Villages India, emphasized the importance of providing a nurturing environment for children who have experienced trauma, offering family-like care and resilience-building modules.
Herbalife's commitment to sustainability is evident in its innovative CSR projects. For instance, the company supports Aqua Eco, an aquatic livelihood initiative that promotes sustainable fish farming and seaweed cultivation in partnership with the Centre for Aquatic Livelihood - Jaljeevika. Neelkanth Mishra, Founder and CEO of Jaljeevika, highlighted the impact of these projects in improving farmers' income and ensuring resilient livelihood models.
Equally significant is Eco Wheels, an initiative by Herbalife that embraces and supports women as well as the LGBTQ+ community, creating meaningful opportunities for them to thrive.
Herbalife has contributed significantly to lake restoration and water conservation efforts as well. With the support of the Centre for Mega Foundation, over 249 lakes and 1,700 km of river channels have been restored across India, benefiting numerous communities.
In addition, Herbalife has collaborated with IIT Madras with the Merit-cum-Means Scholarship for the Bachelor of Science Degree in Data Science and Applications. This initiative aims to empower deserving students by providing them with the financial support needed to pursue advanced education and build promising careers in the field of data science.
Herbalife's Nutrition Clubs play a transformative role in how people approach health and wellness. From a single club 25 years ago, this initiative has grown into a powerful network of over 11,000 clubs in India. These clubs are not just spaces for promoting healthy living but have also evolved into vibrant community centers fostering empowerment, self-reliance, and mutual support. Shyamal Rai, a Herbalife associate, shares his journey of starting and running Nutrition Clubs successfully and guiding people on better nutrition and well-being.
Through the 'Nutrition Matters' campaign and its various community partnerships, Herbalife continues to strengthen its impact on health, sustainability, and community empowerment. By combining quality nutrition products with community-driven initiatives, Herbalife aims to make wellness accessible to all, fostering a healthier and more sustainable future for communities worldwide.
