FERNDALE, Mich. — Ferndale Healthcare on Friday announced that its Heliocare brand has committed to support Vitamin Angels and Walgreens in their effort to help at-risk populations in need — specifically pregnant women, new mothers and children under the age of five — gain access to high quality vitamins and minerals.
In 2013, Vitamin Angels connected nearly 30.5 million children and mothers in more than 40 countries, including the United States, with vital nutrients as a foundation for good health. In 2014, the nonprofit organization hopes to increase this number to reach 40 million children and mothers in approximately 45 countries.
Through 2017, a percentage of each Heliocare purchase at any Walgreens location will be donated to help Vitamin Angels provide 100 million children and mothers with the vitamins and minerals they need to live healthy lives.
