The Association Between Plexus and World Hunger
People from around the world suffer from hunger, even those who live in first-world countries. When it comes to some people, hunger is an issue that seems impossible to think about. Day by day, families and children are not certain when or where they will be getting their next meal. The issue of world hunger is a topic that Plexus president Christopher Pair is well aware of. This is because he has been through hunger as a child, and that is why he is the man he is today.
Christopher Pair was the grandson of a Mexican immigrant and the son of a sharecropper where joining the military on the part of his father has saved them from poverty. To provide for the family, his father left the service and became a gardener. In the family, the supply of food was not enough to feed them right. Their little amount of food supply is also not enough to give them the nutritional value that they need. Recycling became one method that the family used when Christopher was still young just to have enough income for food. In order for them to buy meals, they needed to trade soda cans with money.
Having experienced years of uncertainty, Christopher made it his mission to obtain proper education to further his career. The direct selling industry is the place that Christopher Pair came to attain prosperity and good health and change the lives of others. A direct selling company that focuses on people living healthier lives, Plexus Worldwide has appointed Christopher Pair to be its President of Operations and International.
Changing the lives of other people is what Christopher Pair has become dedicated to. He joined Plexus because of their goal to help other people overcome health challenges. With the joined efforts of achieving health and nutrition, both Plexus and Christopher Pair are moving forward to provide nourishment to people who are suffering from hunger.
Come June 2018, Plexus partnered with Feeding America to provide nourishment to the hungry. This partnership is built to put find long-term solutions for the hunger crisis. Their Nourish One initiative is where every time you buy a Plexus Lean product from them, 14 meals as equivalent in a monetary donation will go to Feeding America. For the five months alone, an equivalent of 4 million meal donations have been met.
Owing to the fact that Christopher Pair still wants to reach more than 10 million meal donations, their Nourish One Initiative has partnered internationally with Mary’s Meals. Mary’s Meals is a worldwide child hunger charity that aims to feed 1.3 million children every day. For every purchase of Plexus Lean product that you make, a monetary donation will go to the charity. Plexus has even made an initial $25,000 donation to Mary’s Meals on the 12th of January.
With 17 of the world’s most impoverished countries, Mary’s Meals set up feeding programs at school with some community volunteer help. This helps encourage children to go to school to get a meal than beg to get one.
