Disaster can strike anywhere, anytime and the effects are felt around the world. That's when organizations like the USANA True Health Foundation step in. Because of the way the foundation is set up, it's in a position to help with unforeseen catastrophes in an urgent and timely manner. The non-profit organization donated $1.5 million RMB to aid in relief efforts surrounding the massive 6.5 magnitude earthquake that struck Yunnan province, southwestern China province on August 2.

Contributions will go to the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation (CFPA), a non-profit organization, engaged in managing domestic and overseas-donated funds and materials.

It's devastating when a natural disaster hits your home, and we will be there when people are suffering, said President of the USANA True Health Foundation, Elaine Pace. 

We thank all the members of our USANA family who have made it possible for the True Health Foundation to assist in life-saving events such as this.

The $1.5 million RMB donation includes cash and premium products provided by USANA Health Sciences.  The money will be transferred to CFPA, supplies such as food, water, tents and other urgent needs will be delivered to the Yunnan Civil Affairs Bureau and 200-thousand boxes ofUSANA® Probiotics will be delivered to the disaster area once the roads are fixed.
