Nutrex Hawaii Inc. Partners with the Hawaii Island School Garden Network on #GivingTuesday
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii (PRWEB) December 01, 2014 -- In honor of #GivingTuesday, Nutrex Hawaii, makers of natural Hawaiian microalgae supplements, will donate 10 percent of all sales at Nutrex-Hawaii.com on December 2, 2014 to the Hawaii Island School Garden Network (HISGN). Founded by The Kohala Center, HISGN supports more than 60 school learning gardens on Hawaii Island through technical assistance, professional development programs, and mini-grants, connecting Hawaii’s keiki (children) to real food, healthier eating habits, and the aina (land) itself. The Network also administers FoodCorps Hawaii and the statewide Hawaii Farm to School and School Garden Hui, both of which work to develop garden and nutrition programs for learning gardens and help schools procure fresh, healthy, locally grown food.
“We appreciate Nutrex Hawaii’s support,” said Nancy Redfeather, HISGN program director. “With their contributions, we will be able to continue to expand the programs we offer Hawaii’s most vulnerable population—our children.”
“We are thrilled to support HISGN’s work on Hawaii Island,” said Sheryl Biesman, director of marketing, Nutrex-Hawaii.com. “They are doing a terrific job of promoting positive and sustainable changes in the well-being of Hawaii’s youth.”
#GivingTuesday is a global movement to celebrate and provide incentives to give. This effort harnesses the collective power of a unique blend of partners—charities, families, businesses and individuals—to transform how people think about, talk about and participate in the giving season.
Nutrex-Hawaii.com shoppers worldwide will save 10 percent and give 10 percent to HISGN on December 2, 2014 when they use promo code GIVE10. This offer is valid on all Nutrex Hawaii products.
