Nu Skin Celebrates 20th Annual Force for Good Day with Global Day of Service

The company continues its commitment to help children worldwide with hospital kits and hygiene products, as well as a donation to Primary Children’s Hospital in Utah County from its nonprofit foundation

PROVO, Utah, June 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Nu Skin is hosting its 20th annual Force for Good Day to support its global humanitarian efforts. To celebrate the company’s founding and to give back to local communities, each Nu Skin region sets aside a day to participate in service projects as part of the company mission to be a global force for good. 

In addition to the service projects, the Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation is making a $1.5 million philanthropic contribution to the Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital Larry H. and Gail Miller Family Campus under construction in Lehi, Utah. The gift will support a new indoor play area that will feature a play space for both patients and their young family members while at the hospital. The kid’s club is scheduled to be completed next year. The Primary Children’s Hospital Miller Family Campus is part of Intermountain Health’s historic Primary Promise, a philanthropic endeavor of at least $600 million to create the model health system for children.

At the Nu Skin global headquarters in Utah, this year's Force for Good Day is focused on extending kindness and support to children battling illnesses in hospitals or undergoing surgery. More than 900 Nu Skin employees and their families will participate in a day of service to benefit 1,000 hospitalized children around the world. Three different kits will be assembled to support children recovering from life-saving surgeries at Primary Children’s Hospital, facial reconstruction surgeries in Latin America and hospitalizations in war-torn European countries. 

Nu Skin is also donating more than 250,000 units of hygiene products to support families leaving refugee camps in war-torn countries throughout Eastern Europe. The product donations will be given to one of Nu Skin’s charity partners, Convoy of Hope, to help ensure the donation reaches the refugees who are in need. 

“Children have always been at the heart of our force for good efforts,” said Ruth Todd, Nu Skin senior vice president of public affairs. “The goal with projects at our global headquarters this year is to help children who are experiencing health challenges while recovering from surgery or other illnesses. As we coordinate the efforts of our affiliates and employees across the world, we have the opportunity to make a greater impact for good than any of us could do alone.”
