Nu Skin Celebrates 20th Annual Force for Good Day with Global Day of Service
07 Junio 2023 - 11:05AM
Today, Nu Skin is hosting its 20th annual Force for Good Day to
support its global humanitarian efforts. To celebrate the company’s
founding and to give back to local communities, each Nu Skin region
sets aside a day to participate in service projects as part of the
company mission to be a global force for good.
In addition to the service projects, the Nu Skin
Force for Good Foundation is making a $1.5 million philanthropic
contribution to the Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital Larry
H. and Gail Miller Family Campus under construction in Lehi, Utah.
The gift will support a new indoor play area that will feature a
play space for both patients and their young family members while
at the hospital. The kid’s club is scheduled to be completed next
year. The Primary Children’s Hospital Miller Family Campus is
part of Intermountain Health’s historic Primary Promise, a
philanthropic endeavor of at least $600 million to create the model
health system for children.
At the Nu Skin global headquarters in Utah, this
year's Force for Good Day is focused on extending kindness and
support to children battling illnesses in hospitals or undergoing
surgery. More than 900 Nu Skin employees and their families will
participate in a day of service to benefit 1,000 hospitalized
children around the world. Three different kits will be assembled
to support children recovering from life-saving surgeries at
Primary Children’s Hospital, facial reconstruction surgeries in
Latin America and hospitalizations in war-torn European
countries.
Nu Skin is also donating more than 250,000 units of
hygiene products to support families leaving refugee camps in
war-torn countries throughout Eastern Europe. The product donations
will be given to one of Nu Skin’s charity partners, Convoy of Hope,
to help ensure the donation reaches the refugees who are in
need.
“Children have always been at the heart of our
force for good efforts,” said Ruth Todd, Nu Skin senior vice
president of public affairs. “The goal with projects at our global
headquarters this year is to help children who are experiencing
health challenges while recovering from surgery or other illnesses.
As we coordinate the efforts of our affiliates and employees across
the world, we have the opportunity to make a greater impact for
good than any of us could do alone.” Global Force for
