195 Xtreme Food Makeover events help support 423 under-nourished
children
COPPELL, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 5, 2012--
Mannatech,
Incorporated (NASDAQ: MTEX),
the leading innovator and provider of naturally sourced supplements
based on Real
Food Technology® solutions, announced today that it
surpassed its goal of 100 events in its “XFM 100” one-night initiative
on October 30th.
The XFM 100 initiative is part of Mannatech’s Xtreme Food Makeover
campaign, originally launched in September 2012. This movement showcases
Mannatech’s Real Food Technology approach to nutrition, and enables
anyone to boost the nutrition of anything they eat with NutriVerus™
powder, the company’s newest product. Xtreme Food Makeover events are
hosted by independent Associates of Mannatech. The XFM 100 challenged
Mannatech Associates to collectively host 100 events on one day.
Associates surpassed this goal and held 195 Xtreme Food Makeover events
on one night, October 30, 2012. In addition, the Mannatech corporate
office committed that for every event scheduled between October 17 and
October 30, they would donate valuable nutrition to a child for an
entire year through its Give for Real donation-through-consumption
program. Mannatech will be nourishing 423 children in need over the next
year due to the overwhelming response of its Associates.
Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Al Bala, said, “Our
Associates far surpassed our expectations in scheduling not 100, but
nearly 200 XFM events. They have embraced our XFM system with such
unmatched passion not only because it’s so simple, fun, and easy to
duplicate, but most importantly, because they are sharing a unique
solution to one of the world’s biggest problems—malnutrition. All of
this is a powerful testament to their renewed faith and deep belief in
Mannatech’s core values and what we stand for. When you combine all
these things, you are looking at a powerful movement, one that is
changing their own lives, the lives of children, and the world.”
Mannatech developed its Give for Real program to use the social
entrepreneurship model to meet the needs of vulnerable children all over
the world. For every purchase on Automatic Order containing one or more
qualifying products, Mannatech donates PhytoBlend® powder
formulated using Real Food Technology® solutions to
undernourished children through MannaRelief®*. Watch
