Women’s History Month Wellness Donation!
Guest Blog Post by Shaklee
March 2022
We're partnering with Project Glimmer during Women’s History Month this year to give back to a women-led non-profit whose mission is in line with ours—helping teenage girls and women find what they need to better their lives. We also love that both Project Glimmer’s headquarters and our home office are located in the Bay Area.
Bringing True Wellness to the World
Shaklee traces its roots all the way back to 1915, starting not with a company but with a product created by Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee—Shaklee’s Vitalized Minerals, the first multivitamin in the United States. And since the company’s founding in 1956, Shaklee has looked to science and nature to innovate and create products that help people live their healthiest lives. Our wellness solutions stand tall on decades of nutritional research and studies, including 110+ published clinical studies and 70+ patents and patents pending.
We also pride ourselves in maintaining ingredient quality standards that surpass even the standards of the United States Pharmacopeia. We go beyond how and where an ingredient is grown and confirm its purity and potency, with 100,000 quality tests and over 350 harmful contaminant tests on every ingredient.
Lastly, we’re happy to say that we were eco-friendly before it was a “thing.” Shaklee has always had the health of our planet in mind. We were the first company in the world to be certified Climate Neutral, and we hold ourselves to the highest environmental standards to make sure our impact on the Earth is a solid net zero.
“Shaklee has always had a high number of women leaders, and they have driven us forward in our mission to bring true wellness to the world.”
The Women of Shaklee
While we celebrate Women’s History Month, we want to acknowledge the impact and contributions that the women of Shaklee have made. Unlike many companies, Shaklee has always had a high number of women leaders in our C-suite and our science team, and they have driven us forward in our mission to bring true wellness to the world. In addition, we’ve not only given women the products and tools to achieve better wellness, but many women have also partnered with us to build successful independent businesses. And we love everything that they do to help others live healthier.
Our Donation
Through our partnership with Project Glimmer, we are donating 10,000 packs of Vitalized Immunity™. Vitalized Immunity is an effervescent immune booster that has as much vitamin C as 16 oranges, and it’s designed to help you keep your defenses up during times of stress, busy schedules, or poor nutrition.
Together, we’re building healthier communities and a healthier planet. And we invite anyone who is passionate about wellness to partner with us. Wellness is where we’ve been and where we plan to stay for a long time.
