See the Change: Evolution and Expansion

Meet Howard. When he founded Vitamin Angels in 1994, things looked pretty different than they do today. But, 26 years later, one thing remains the same, his commitment to improving nutrition among underserved populations.

Back in 2013, when the Walgreens-Vitamin Angels partnership began, Howard’s vision for a healthier world got a welcome boost.

How does the partnership work? When you buy vitamins at Walgreens, you’ll help provide life-changing vitamins to undernourished children and expectant mothers around the world and here at home.

Over the past 7 years, as resources and support expanded so, too, did Vitamin Angels. Thanks in part support from Walgreens and its suppliers, Vitamin Angels annual reach has grown by 150%, and its program partner network has expanded by 5x.

With the expansion of the partnership to Walgreens-Boots Alliance** in 2020, greater impact is on the horizon. We couldn’t be more excited about the prospect of creating a healthier world, together.


**Walgreens-Boots Alliance is one of the largest drugstore chains in the U.S., with operations across Europe, Latin America, Asia. The company brings together some of the best recognized brands in healthcare, retail and beauty, with a purpose: to help people across the world lead healthier and happier lives.
