Vitamin World® Gives the Gift of Good Health to Moms This Mother's Day

HOLBROOK, N.Y., May 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Beginning May 1st, Vitamin World® kicked off their Spring Campaign "Angels For Mom" in an effort to support Vitamin Angels®.  The focus of this campaign is help support pregnant and lactating mothers who so desperately need vitamins and nutrients for themselves and their unborn.

A child's potential for good physical health and cognitive development begins before the baby is born. This two month campaign will help Vitamin Angels® supply essential vitamins to "at risk" moms and their unborn children locally and around the world.

"Since the month of May is all about Moms, we felt it was the perfect time to express the importance of nutrition to pregnant and lactating mothers with an 'Angels for Mom' campaign.  With the overwhelming generosity of our customers and the dedication of our associates this is sure to be a success!" - Vicki McGuire, Sr. Vice President of Vitamin World®.
