Amway has released its 2013 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report, “We Believe.” The report highlights the company’s efforts to improve the lives of people all over the world.

“Knowing we are making a difference in people’s lives gives us a tremendous sense of fulfillment,” said Amway Chairman Steve Van Andel. “Doing so helps fulfill our vision of improving lives and makes this world a little better for us and the generations to follow.”

The report contains information about how the company focused its social responsibility efforts in 2013 in three key areas: people, products and performance.

A few highlights, from the report:

• Amway celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Amway One by One Campaign for Children, which has helped 11 million children worldwide through 3.1 million volunteer hours and USD $225 million in donations.


• Amway volunteers across 57 countries completed 300 volunteer projects to help 100,000 children, during a “global day of service.”


• Amway has committed its nutrition expertise to help fight chronic malnourishment in children through its Power of 5 Campaign and Nutrilite Little Bits, a small, powerful packet of micronutrients. Since 2009, Nutrilite Little Bits has provided important health benefits to nearly 3,000 children in Mexico and Zambia – and, plans to expand distribution of the product to 15 additional countries across four continents during the next three years.


• Amway constantly seeks to improve its manufacturing and sustainability efforts to be good stewards of our Earth. In 2013, Amway reduced its water consumption by more than 10 percent and nearly doubled its non-grid alternative energy (wind power) usage.
