Over 700,000 Units Valued at $6 Million to Support Nationwide Hunger Relief Efforts
PITTSBURGH, July 2, 2024 – GNC, the global leader in health and wellness, proudly announces its latest charitable initiative in partnership with Feeding America®. This substantial donation consisted of 15 truckloads of essential health and wellness products, representing over 700,000 units with a total retail value of over $6.4 million. This latest contribution is part of GNC’s unwavering commitment to giving back to supporting those in need and helping its communities Live Well.
Feeding America, the nation’s largest hunger-relief organization, will help distribute these products to food banks and pantries across the country. The donation includes a variety of vitamins, supplements, and nutritional products designed to support overall health and wellness.
