Company partners with nonprofit to fight malnutrition holistically
Press Release – CULVER CITY, CA – This Bar Saves Lives announced their partnership today with Vitamin Angels, a 501c3 humanitarian organization that supplies lifesaving vitamins to mothers, and children under the age of five. Through their strategic partnerships, This Bar Saves Lives provides resources and essential nutrition to those in need. The Vitamin Angels partnership adds another measure to This Bar Saves Lives’ holistic approach to fighting malnutrition around the world.
Vitamin Angels addresses the problem of malnutrition from the very start. Not only does the organization provide children with vitamin A and deworming tablets, they also give mothers prenatal vitamins that deliver nutritional support during the critical window of a child’s development. This Bar Saves Lives and Vitamin Angels aim to give every child the opportunity to thrive by providing nutrition that promotes proper brain development, healthy growth and a strong immune system.
This Bar Saves Lives has already provided enough vitamins to impact the lives of 128,000 children through the sales of their snack bars. “We partner with the most effective and well-respected humanitarian organizations in the world to provide the best possible aid to areas that need it most” says co-founder Todd Grinnell. “We’re so proud to work with Vitamin Angels to reach even more children in need.”
Malnutrition can prevent children from reaching their full mental and physical potential. Because this strains the economic productivity of developing countries, it is crucial to invest in nutrition. According to the World Bank, there is up to a thirty dollar return on investment for every dollar a country spends on nutrition.
Access to nutritious foods and basic health services is limited around the world, even in developed countries like the United States. Vitamin Angels operates internationally, and domestically through food banks, clinics and pregnancy resource centers. By partnering with reputable and non-disruptive organizations such as Vitamin Angels, This Bar Saves Lives continues to broaden its global impact.
