Leading supplier of probiotic, bioavailable kefir pairs microbiome support with fitness
MORTON GROVE, Ill., Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lifeway Foods, Inc., (NASDAQ: LWAY) ("Lifeway" or "the Company"), a leading supplier of kefir cultured dairy products, today announced its sponsorship of the Charity Miles running, walking and biking app. During the campaign, Lifeway will sponsor $10,000 worth of Charity Miles donations in support of mental health initiatives.
Charity Miles is a free iPhone/Android app that enables people to earn money for charity when they walk, run or bike. The app tracks the distance traveled, which triggers a financial donation to the user's selected organization. Participants can also raise awareness for their causes by sharing their achievements on social media using a built-in widget.
"Mental health is a critical component of individual well-being that impacts everyone, from families to even corporations," said Julie Smolyansky, President and CEO of Lifeway Foods. "It is a vital factor in fostering resilience within communities, emphasizing the need for comprehensive support and awareness. We have all been touched by a mental health crisis at some point in our lives. We want to destigmatize the conversation around mental health, and we're optimistic about the opportunities and tools to help build solutions that enable people to live happier, healthier and more stable lives. At Lifeway, we're focused on making probiotic products with bioavailable nutrients and high-quality protein that support the microbiome, as well as contributing to the walking, running and active living communities that, in tandem, help to foster better mental and emotional wellbeing."
Lifeway has been a leader in the wellness space since 1986, bringing probiotic kefir and farmer cheese into the mainstream. Look for Lifeway on the Charity Miles app, in the dairy aisle of your favorite store and online.
