- Children at Casa Betania, a safe haven for children in La Paz, Bolivia, presented representatives of the Herbalife Family Foundation with handmade flowers when they arrived to present a grant to establish a Casa Herbalife program to help improve nutrition, at the center.

Opened in 1996, Casa Betania is just one of several centers run by Fundacion Arco Iris in Bolivia, where children receive nutritious meals, medical attention, clothing, educational and social assistance. Currently, 240 children, from infants to 12 years of age, are served at the center.

Casa Betania is in the Gran Bretana neighborhood, considered one of the most impoverished areas of the Bolivian capital city. The initial grant by HFF will support the daily operations, staffing costs and other much needed services and resources.

The Casa Herbalife program was launched in 2005 to help provide healthy and nutritious meals by partnering with existing charities serving children. This is the 33rd Casa Herbalife program established worldwide.

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.
