PROVO, Utah, July 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Nu Skin (NYSE: NUS)
is hosting its annual Force for Good Day as part of its commitment
to humanitarian efforts both locally and globally. It is a day set
aside for Nu Skin brand affiliates, employees and their families to
participate in local service projects focused on benefiting the
lives of thousands of at-risk children around the globe.
The company's Force for Good Day projects support the company's
broader humanitarian efforts including improving the lives of
children, nourishing future generations, caring for our planet and
investing in local communities.
This year at Nu Skin's global headquarters, employees and their
families will be working with the Boys and Girls Club, the Franklin
Community Center, The Elizabeth Smart Foundation and
KultureCity. After receiving educational training on keeping
children safe and understanding the needs of those with
disabilities, participants will work together to create 2,600 items
including backpacks filled with books and learning materials,
flashcards for second language learners, trauma and sensory kits
and blankets.
"Nu Skin's force for good culture is something we live
year-round, and Force for Good Day is a focused effort to bring
everyone together to serve in our communities," said Ryan Napierski, president and CEO-elect. "Our
annual Force for Good day especially inspires our global brand
affiliates, customers, and employees to dedicate their resources
and time to help children in need, while celebrating the impact we
have made on hundreds of thousands of children around the world.
Whether at home or abroad, Nu Skin always strives to be a force for
good."
