Through its partners, including hospitals, orphanages, schools and nonprofit organizations fighting hunger, the Foundation helps improve the lives of children by providing healthy nutrition and nutrition education. The Gala was attended by employees and Herbalife Independent Distributors.

"We are grateful for the ongoing generosity of Herbalife employees and Independent Distributors in our shared mission to ensure that children and communities around the world have access to the meals, nutrition and care they need to transform their lives", said Fundación Herbalife Nutrition, executive director Jenny Perez.
