MegaFood has partnered with Vitamin Angels, a global public health nonprofit working to improve nutrition and health outcomes for the most nutritionally vulnerable groups – pregnant women, infants, and children – by delivering evidence-based nutrition interventions. As part of our partnership and 1% for the Planet Membership, MegaFood has donated $150,000 to provide more than 600,000 women and children worldwide with life-changing essential vitamins and nutrients.
Vitamin Angels works with over 1,200 local organizations, including governments, to reach more than 74 million women and children in about 65 countries annually. Both Charity Navigator and Candid (formerly GuideStar) give Vitamin Angels their highest marks for financial transparency.
Through this partnership with Vitamin Angels, MegaFood will provide life-changing vitamins and nutrients worldwide, supporting the health of the most underserved communities around the world and allowing us to have greater impact in our continued commitment to healthier people and the planet.
Vitamin Angeles delivers evidence-based nutrition interventions to improve nutrition and health outcomes for the most nutritionally vulnerable communities.
This partnership comes at a critical time, with the World Food Program predicting a 20% surge in hunger and malnutrition by 2050 due to the adverse effects of climate change. Together, MegaFood and Vitamin Angels will increase access to solutions that support optimal nutrition for moms and kids globally by amplifying this partnership and raising awareness for the cause.
“At Vitamin Angels, we believe that every child should have the chance to live a healthy and productive life. MegaFood’s plant-powered and planet-first heritage not only aligns with our mission to help at-risk populations in need, but addresses the intersection of nutrition and sustainability,” says Howard Schiffer, Founder of Vitamin Angels. “Together, we can be part of the generation to end malnutrition and help create a healthier planet for all.”
