ViSalus Faith and Fitness Initiative Program



This can be FREE for those in need through our community challenge, and Three for FREE campaign.


The Faith and Fitness Initiative operates as follows:
1.Your church or ministry can get involved in the Faith and Fitness Initiative using the ViSalus Community Challenge without doing business, simply promote the donation phase of the Community Challenge.

2.As you raise money for meals for those in need, a percentage of what you’ve raised will come back to that ministry as a cash royalty.

3.You can help friends lose weight and get healthy with a support group in your church using products that add no extra cost to anyone’s budget. You can do this without the church getting involved, yet you can support your church in doing so.

ViSalus is offering a website to churches to get this nutrition to families in need AT NO CHARGE. Seeing the value to helping out faith based organizations across the world, ViSalus allows churches to activate a ViSalus Basic Distributorship at no cost.


Watch the short video that explains the initiative and how you can contribute this great cause.





You will even get your own website that you can use to promote both nutritional solutions as well as raise meals for hungry kids. This is our effort to support the great work churches are doing. To ensure we are helping the community, this offer is for impact ministries meaning they will be distributing at least 10 bags of shake mix to families in need.

From this website, we will make sure any meal donations will be shipped directly to the charity designated, whether it be your food bank, or one in the community.  Then simply promote a challenge to give nutrition to families in need. The easiest way to do this is for the church to promote an offering to get good nutrition in our local food banks, or the churches food pantry. Once we’ve collected enough donations to make an impact, the church simply orders the meals and the process begins. It’s that simple.

You can donate 60 child sized portions for only $24- that’s less than 50 cents a serving to families in need. If we get your ministry approved with an acceptable 501c3, we can direct those donated meals from your site to your chosen charity.

If you donate a Community Challenge Donation not only do you feed families in need, but some of that will come back to support your church.  Many churches have weight-loss small groups that meet weekly. Many of these groups use tools or systems to aid their goals such as Weight Watchers, Prism, Weigh Down Workshop and others. So it's not new for churches to use outside resources to aid their members. We simply offer a nutritional solution that is more affordable than all those mentioned. Plus, no matter how well you shop and cook, we still need nutritional supplements to round out our diets. By giving people a nutritional option as opposed to high-sodium and high-sugar foods, we're actually SAVING church members money in their health goals. If someone in the church wanted to facilitate a support group with these goals, they could purchase their kits through the church and thus they would be supporting the church with this activity as well. This idea is simply an option- you don’t have to do this aspect. Products purchased this way would give the church the full volume benefit as opposed to the donated volume.

And we’re making this exciting with $10,000,000 in prizes and vacations. Everyone wins now- everyone who does the 90 day challenge will win something.  First of all, let's help you get started with your own church site. Fill out a paper form through the ViSalus rep you are talking to. At this time we can't do this online- we need to mail or fax the form. Simply put "FAITH AND FITNESS" on the top of the application and in the credit card area for the free sites. (Proof of church 501c3 status will be requested for approval.) Once that's up and running, email giving@visalus.com to request your charity site be approved for encryption with the charity of your choice. Give them the information requested and fax into Visalus so they can encrypt your charity site to send the product to the appropriate location. It's that simple.

We will be here again next month on our LIVE National Faith and Fitness Call, the second Thursday of every month at 6pm Pacific Time. At that time dial 507-726-3356 and the access pin 44581#. We will answer new questions received ahead of time from listeners and ministers and review frequently asked questions as well. You can also contact Shelly MacDonald at 319-480-3103 to learn how you can join this initiative today. Thank you again for joining us and together we can help provide real solutions to large issues our committees are facing across the world.
