Alan Lu & Zoy Wen are the 2024 Herbalife Nutrition Foundation (HNF) Global Humanitarians of the Year! In addition to this amazing accomplishment, Alan and Zoy will receive a $30,000 USD donation to give to a charitable organization of their choice, and our regional Humanitarians will receive $10,000 each to also donate to charitable organizations of their choice.
Since 2007, the HNF has rewarded global and regional humanitarian awards to Herbalife Independent Distributors who embody the mission of our foundation. Thirty years ago, our Founder Mark Hughes, began the journey of helping children and communities in need of healthy nutrition and education. HNF is proud to have so many supporters who have followed Mark’s vision to impact the lives of those who need it most. Thank you for your dedication and generosity. You are a walking example of what Mark dreamed our foundation would become.
The following Global & Regional Humanitarians were chosen based on their philanthropic activity, community leadership, volunteerism, and advocacy. Join us in honoring the 17th annual Global and Regional Humanitarians!
Alan Lu & Zoy Wen – Global Humanitarians & Asia Pacific Humanitarians
Alan Lu and Zoy Wen strongly believe that the chain of kindness can change the world. For over a decade, Alan and Zoy have consistently given back to their community and HNF by devoting over 600 volunteer hours, donating funds, and encouraging others to do the same.
By the end of 2022, they led over 700 people to join a variety of charity programs, including CASA friends. In fact, 300 distributors followed their lead to become CASA friends, which has accounted for over 60% of the total number of CASA friends in Taiwan.
From volunteering at food banks, to donating COVID-19 supplies, to even rebuilding houses for families in need every year, Alan and Zoy are living proof of the cycle of kindness. Congratulations to the 2024 Global Humanitarians.
Rodica Macadrai – Europe & Africa Humanitarian
Rodica Macadrai is a passionate giver and advocate of HNF. Over the years, she has promoted HNF at Herbalife trainings, donated time and resources, and pushed for a Casa Herbalife presence in Romania. Because of Rodica’s persistence and leadership, HNF began a partnership with Asociaţia Ana Şi Copiii and since the Casa’s inception, the Foundation has granted hundreds of thousands to help over 100 children in need.
Rodica believes in Mark Hughes’ idea that giving back is instilled in Herbalife’s mission and she inspires others to do the same.
