LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Herbalife Nutrition (NYSE:HLF), a premier global nutrition company whose purpose is to make the world healthier and happier, today announced its support for the League of United Latin American Citizens’ at the 89th Annual National Convention in Phoenix. The event runs through July 21 and will cover key issues including health, sexual assault and the need for a greater Latina presence in business and politics.
“We’re thrilled to begin a new chapter in our relationship with LULAC, evolving from a partnership over the past five years from the local and state level to this year’s national LULAC and the Women’s Conference,” said Angela Arboleda, vice president, government and community affairs at Herbalife Nutrition.
Over the five-day conference, Arboleda will participate in the Latinas Rising: Entrepreneurship & Business panel discussion which will focus on Latina businesswomen who have had a major impact on their local economies.
“I am grateful for Herbalife Nutrition’s partnership and their support of the Women’s Commission at the LULAC National Women’s Conference in our mission to empower with knowledge and harness leadership skills for Latinas to succeed in today’s economy,” said Lourdes Galvan, National Vice President for Women. “Throughout our partnership, the Company has generously supported LULAC’s efforts to highlight the many ways that Latinas contribute every day to the growth and improvement of the Latino Community and the neighborhoods where they live and work.”
Women play a significant role as part of the Herbalife Nutrition independent distributor workforce. The Company provides an opportunity to make part-time or full-time income selling a line of nutritious science-based weight-management products, while offering the flexibility needed to raise a family.
“We recognize the critical role women play in their families’ well-being from financial decisions to providing proper nutrition. By empowering women, we can make communities healthier and happier,” added Arboleda.
