Corporate Caring, Making a Difference in the World, Socially Conscious Companies July 15th, 2007
At my speakers convention, I met a new friend named Dan McCormick. Dan works with Nu skin Enterprise. He is one of thousands of Distributors worldwide who contribute a small portion their income every month towards NOURISH THE CHILDREN campaign. Dan says to go to this site and watch the video’s. Here’s more from Dan’s email:
Five Million children die each year from malnutrition. For $40.00 a month you can feed a child for a whole month; that has a remarkable benefit to our people. I have witnessed people on a stage from China to Russia who earn sizable incomes in our company in tears as they share the joy of this company , because of the feeling they get from being a part of something that has now fed over 86,000,000 meals in the last few years.
It has been received so well that our company just won the 2007 Stevie award for the company exhibiting the Best Social Responsibility.
In his latest book WHERE HAVE ALL THE LEADERS GONE Lee Iacocca spends 3 pages speaking about this great cause and uses it as an example to all other companies. He quotes the Chairman and founder of Nuskin, Blake Roney: “Nourish The Children is only five percent of what we do but it is ninety-five percent who we are.” As The Chairman of this great cause, Lee helps all of us in our goal to end world hunger.
I personally have heard Napoleon Dzombe (our local partner) from Malawi Africa speak of people walking nearly a hundred miles because they heard they could get food there. With all our help we can end world hunger.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PLAY SMALL ROLE PLEASE CONTACT Dan to make us all a little richer: danmccormick@cox.net.
(Reading this made me realize how privileged yet over fed we are - particularly after grilling out tonight with all the trimmings and fresh blackberries and ice cream for desert. Dan’s friends would think we were royalty. We are rich indeed).
