Thanks to the generosity of Isagenix and the company’s independent distributors, customers, and employees, the newly established Isagenix Legacy Foundation raised $2.3 million during its first 24 hours of fundraising, exceeding the $2 million goal.

“Jim and I are so moved by how the Isagenix family has embraced the Foundation,” said Kathy Coover, Isagenix co-founder and executive vice president. “Our company and those connected to it have a long history of contribution, so we knew we would see a positive response, but people have truly gone above and beyond.

With a mission to positively impact the lives of children through nutrition and education, along with Herbalife’s purpose to making the world healthier and happier, the Herbalife Family Foundation (HFF) recently announced it raised $1.8 million at its annual Gala fundraiser to support more than 130 nonprofit partners in 50 countries around the world.
Through its “Casa Herbalife” program, HFF commits ongoing support to its charity partners, which include orphanages, community centers and hospitals, to help them improve children’s lives by providing healthy nutrition.
“Thanks to the generosity of Herbalife’s independent distributors and employees, the Herbalife Family Foundation will provide vital nutrition and support services to children who need it the most around the world,” said HFF President Alan Hoffman.
The Casa Herbalife Program, established in 2005, currently serves more than 100,000 children at over 130 organizations in more than 50 countries, helping provide healthy and nutritious meals to children in orphanages, after school centers, and other nonprofit facilities around the world. HFF’s work continues to expand in 2018, with the addition of three new Casa Herbalife partners located in Austria, Switzerland and Ghana.
