More than 100 Herbalife Employees will Rally
75-Flights to Raise Funds for YMCA Programs Under the #Herbalife
#ImWithYou Campaign
LOS
ANGELES, Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Health and
wellness company, Herbalife, today announced it returns for the
tenth consecutive year as the official nutrition partner of
the Ketchum–Downtown YMCA Stair Climb for Los
Angeles, taking place Friday, September
29. On the 30th Anniversary of the YMCA Stair
Climb & Urban Hike, the company will support more than
3,000 participants who complete the 75-flight ascent to the top of
the U.S. Bank Tower in Downtown Los Angeles, by
helping ensure they receive nutrients and proper hydration, with
products from its Herbalife24 sports line including Herbalife24
Achieve Bars and CR7 Drive. The more than 100 Herbalife employees
participating through the company's new, year-long, #Herbalife
#ImWithYou healthy active lifestyle campaign will also be awarded
points through its corporate wellness program.
Each year, the stair climb raises funds to subsidize YMCA community
programs, including those that fight obesity, by promoting healthy
living. The Y's programs make it possible for children, teens, and
seniors from under-resourced neighborhoods in the city to
participate.
"Every year we look forward to supporting the YMCA and their
commitment to strengthening communities through healthy active
living, a mission that we as a company share and strive to
implement in communities around the world through fun and engaging
activities like this one," said Samantha Clayton, vice
president of Sports Performance and Fitness and member of the
Ketchum DTLA YMCA board of directors.
Herbalife's continued commitment to the YMCA is just one of the
many ways the company is giving back to vulnerable communities
worldwide and encouraging well-being based on positive experiences
that help individuals live their best lives. In addition to the
YMCA, the company, in association with grants made possible by the
Herbalife Nutrition Foundation, also supports several local charity
organizations including A Place Called Home, Children's Institute
Inc., and Heart of Los Angeles
(HOLA).
"Most families in LA's under-served communities are focused on
making ends meet, so it's wonderful to count on the support of
corporate partners like Herbalife to help us achieve our goal of
creating lasting personal and social change in our communities,"
said Ketchum-Downtown YMCA's Executive Director, Carol
Pfannkuche. "We are excited to welcome Herbalife back as our
official nutrition partner for our 30-year anniversary of the stair
climb."
For over 43 years, the company has been dedicated to improving
wellness in the lives of people around the world, including its
employees through its 'Wellness for Life' employee wellness
program. The program is designed to inspire, motivate, and provide
a wide range of fun activities to help improve employee health and
well-being each year. As part of the campaign, the company
will grant each participating employee 100 wellness points for
completing the stair climb, urban hike and/or volunteering at the
event, which will go toward a point to dollar credit for 2024
health care premiums.
