CHARITABLE GIVING

The Vitamin Shoppe has a strong sense of responsibility to do whatever we can to support non-profit organizations devoted to health and wellness. The company is currently involved with signature efforts that support three outstanding organizations: Vitamin Angels, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation. With more than 340 stores across the United States, The Vitamin Shoppe also supports numerous regional organizations that are dedicated to health and wellness in the communities where we do business.

VITAMIN ANGELS - OPERATION 20/20
Vitamin Angels is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing vital nutrition in the form of supplements, to developing countries, communities, and individuals in need. Their Operation 20/20 was initiated to help eradicate childhood blindness across the world due to VAD - vitamin A deficiency. The Vitamin Shoppe raised more than $150,000 in donations for this cause and also supports Vitamin Angels through additional in-kind donations. Vitamin Angels network can be found online at www.vitaminangels.org.

"Team Vitamin Shoppe" has over 200 riders in 15 states. Each of these teams raises money and participates in local MS Rides to help increase awareness and raise donations for this worthy cause. MS is a chronic, unpredictable neurological disease that affects the central nervous system.
