The Herbalife Family Foundation (HFF), a 501(c)3 non-profit
corporation dedicated to improving children's lives by helping
organizations provide healthy nutrition to vulnerable children,
recently opened its second Casa Herbalife program in Australia in
partnership with Lighthouse Foundation, a non-profit organization
dedicated to ending youth homelessness.
The new grant will support Lighthouse Foundation’s nutrition
program, which teaches young people how to lead a healthy lifestyle
through nutrition education and physical activity. Through this
grant, HFF will assist Lighthouse Foundation in promoting health
and wellness among homeless young people coming from backgrounds of
long term neglect and abuse.
“The Herbalife Family Foundation’s support will enable young
people served by the Lighthouse Foundation to have broader access
to better nutrition and wellness services,” said Robyn M. Browning,
executive director of Herbalife Family Foundation. “We hope that
this support will empower them to be better equipped at making good
health choices when it comes to what they eat and how they stay
active.”
Established in 1991, Lighthouse Foundation supports homeless
young people to take their rightful place in the community by
giving them a home, a family and therapeutic care that is proven to
work. There are eleven Lighthouse homes in Melbourne and regional
Victoria, where live-in specialists support young people.
For more than two decades, Lighthouse Foundation has
successfully assisted hundreds of young Australians with employment
and educational opportunity, which builds independence, creates a
connection to their community, and helps them define goals for
themselves.
The Casa Herbalife program was established in 2005 to help bring
good nutrition to children living in orphanages, using after school
centers, and other non-profit facilities around the world tasked
with helping under-served young people. After the initial financial
grants made by HFF, the organizations receive local financial and
volunteer support from Independent Herbalife members as well as
Herbalife employees.
To date, HFF supports over 100 Casa Herbalife programs globally
and serves the daily nutritional needs of more than 120,000
children around the world through annual grants to NGOs and
charities that cater to vulnerable children.
