Global nutrition company, Herbalife (NYSE: HLF), announces that
two of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs - TEAM
Herbalife and Casa Herbalife – were named in the list of "Best
Social Projects of Russia" in 2012.
“Best Social Projects of Russia” is a national program
established to support the aim of the Russian Government to improve
social policy, based on partnership between the state, society and
the private sector. The program is supported by the Ministry of
Natural Resources and Environment, Agency for Strategic
Initiatives, World Wildlife Fund, Forest Stewardship Council and
other organizations.
The main objective of the program is to highlight the importance
of social responsibility, and nominees included major telecoms,
retail and media organizations that have made a significant
contribution to the promotion and advancement of socially
responsible business and social activities. Those named to the
annual list are chosen by a panel of local business and community
leaders, as well as representatives of international companies
present in Russia.
Herbalife has an extremely active social responsibility program
around the world and the Russian programs demonstrate the company’s
philosophy of contributing positively to the communities in which
it operates.
TEAM Herbalife is a national sporting program aimed at promoting
healthy active living among Herbalife independent distributors and
their customers by encouraging participation in local community
sports and fitness events. In 2012, over 4,000 Herbalife
distributors and customers, across more than 30 Russian cities,
took part in this program, participating in such events as Ski
Russia; Cross of Nations; White Nights Marathon in St. Petersburg;
and the Siberian International Marathon in Omsk.
The Casa Herbalife program, one of a number supported worldwide
by the Herbalife Family Foundation (HFF), is aimed at improving the
nutrition of vulnerable children. In Russia it supports children’s
charities in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Krasnoyarsk. The grants
made by Casa Herbalife are aimed at improving nutrition through
projects such as kitchen and dining room refurbishment; updating
kitchen equipment; supporting food bills; and education programs.
