The Herbalife Family Foundation (HFF) has established a Casa Herbalife program at the SOS Children's Village in Bangalore, India to help support the center to provide good nutrition to children in need.

Approximately 400 children are cared for at the Bangalore location, which is one of more than 40 locations throughout India where orphaned and abandoned children can grow in a family environment.

This is the 44th Casa Herbalife program to be established worldwide. HFF also supports other SOS villages in Rome, Madrid, Athens and Chengdu, China.

After an initial grant from HFF, local Herbalife independent distributors and employees will support the program through volunteerism and fundraising.

HFF is a 501(c)(3), non-profit corporation dedicated to improving children's lives by helping organizations provide healthy nutrition to children at risk. Additionally, HFF often supports relief efforts in response to natural disasters.
