USANA Philippines, the number one vitamins and dietary supplements in the country, has taken an empowering step of donating 200 recycled plastic chairs to the students of Pulilan Central School. This activity is part of USANA’s broader commitment to sustainability and community empowerment. The donation highlights their efforts to reduce carbon emissions while actively supporting local education and fostering environmental awareness.
The chairs, composed of 30 kilos of compressed plastic each, are byproducts of USANA’s internal campaign among its employees and associates which encourages them to donate their used plastics and USANA product bottles. Huge transparent bins are placed in their offices nationwide alongside a sample of the recycled plastic chair – a proof of the possible outcome of their donations and efforts.
“We want to impart awareness among our customers, employees, and associates by ensuring that they are aware that those plastic bottles can be recycled to something that would actually be beneficial to the community”, shared Cherry Dionisio-Ampig, USANA Philippines’ General Manager. “In doing so, we can ensure that USANA can inspire a community of environmentally conscious individuals as we maintain our responsible company practices through our sustainable activities especially since we are reaching our 16th year in the Philippines”, she added.
This donation to Pulilan Central School not only provides the students with durable and eco-friendly school chairs but also serves as a testament to how USANA is turning its sustainability efforts into tangible benefits for local communities. Moreso, it serves as springboard to the endless possibilities a simple donation of a used plastic can do.
USANA Philippines is anchored on its core values of community, integrity, excellence, and health. Through the value of community which rests on three main pillars namely people, product, and planet, USANA aims to foster a culture of responsibility and encourage individuals to take proactive steps in waste reduction and environmental stewardship.
As USANA continues to expand its reach and impact across the Philippines, the company remains dedicated to creating a more sustainable and healthier future for all.
