Vitamin Angels

The right nutrition at the right time can make all the difference. When nutritional needs rise during pregnancy, even the healthiest diet may not supply everything mom and baby need. That's why Vitamin Angels works to improve maternal health and birth outcomes worldwide by expanding access to multiple micronutrient supplements (#MMS). Learn more: https://ow.ly/rKef50WYj5y

Where malnutrition dims the future for billions, collaboration holds the power to brighten it. Together with partners like SmartyPants Vitamins, we're helping women and children everywhere reach their potential with essential nutrition. See how Amy Avellar, Senior Director, Brand Communications, feels about our partnership.

🎉 Congratulations to our #Haiti team! We are proud to share that, earlier this year, Haiti's Ministry of Public Health and Population honored Vitamin Angels with the Serge Toureau Award for our team's tireless work to provide Vitamin A supplementation to young children across the country.

Far too often, women do not receive the essential nutrients they need during pregnancy, leading to lasting impacts on health, development, and wellbeing. Vitamin Angels is committed to supporting the scale up of multiple micronutrient supplementation (#MMS), a proven nutrition solution that supports women’s health during pregnancy and improves birth outcomes. We’re thrilled to see the progress #Nepal is making in its efforts to consider scaling up MMS for pregnant women nationwide. With support from organizations like Eleanor Crook Foundation and Helen Keller Intl, Nepal’s Ministry of Health is conducting critical research on how to implement MMS effectively, including estimating costs and exploring how to ensure sustainable funding, how to make supply chains reliable, and how best to encourage women to accept and take MMS daily.

One of our many highlights at #ICN2025 last week: Vitamin Angels was honored to take part in a vital discussion on scaling up antenatal multiple micronutrient supplementation (#MMS) to improve maternal and child health worldwide. During the scientific symposium, “Implementation Science Guiding Global Scale-Up of Antenatal Multiple Micronutrient Supplementation,” at IUNS-ICN 2025, the Vitamin Angels team, represented by Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Kristen M. Hurley and Senior Technical Advisors Clayton Ajello and Monica Fox, shared practical lessons from implementation research conducted in Africa and Southeast Asia.   The session addressed critical questions: How can we ensure access to MMS for the pregnant women who need it? What are the most effective strategies for introducing, evaluating, supplying, and sustaining the scale-up of this proven intervention?   We were proud to be part of this event, which was co-sponsored by the American Society for Nutrition, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and Kirk Humanitarian. Thank you to all the global health experts who joined us to advance the conversation on maternal nutrition.   Together, we are making strides toward a world where every woman and child gets an equal chance at a healthy life. #EvidenceToAction #MaternalNutrition #ImplementationScience #GlobalHealth
