Nu Skin is celebrating its 35th anniversary with humanitarian efforts in more than 20 countries. As part of the company’s annual Force for Good Day, sales leaders, employees and their families are participating in service projects focused on benefiting the lives of thousands of children.
The company’s Force for Good Day projects support the Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation’s mission to improve children’s health, education and economic circumstances. This year at Nu Skin’s global headquarters, employees and their families are providing service in the local community at libraries, schools, parks, recycling centers and nonprofit organizations. Employees will paint, clean-up and beautify the community as they perform meaningful service.
“Nu Skin’s force for good culture is instilled year-round,” said Ritch Wood, chief executive officer. “Our annual Force for Good day especially inspires our global sales leaders, 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.”
