Me having experience dealing with cloud based tech and consulting and integration services, I realize the need for a secure and consistant cloud service. Many people are concerned with the privacy, or lack thereof, that could occur with storing personal documents into a non-physical storage unit. I can see, though with companies such as ours and Metacloud, we are working toward a more secure and easy to use cloud system for both personal and professional use. Spursh Parikh www.sererra.com

"As so many of us sit down to a traditional Thanksgiving meal, we want to remember those families that have been impacted by Hurricane Sandy," said Ryan Blair, ViSalus Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer.  "I am proud of our Promoter community that went above and beyond to help us identify and deliver nutritious shakes and cookies to the families who need our help most.  Promoters from across the country jumped in to help, and their generosity helped us provide nutritious products to those individuals who were affected by the storm."

Grace Bible Fellowship in Keyport, NJ was one of 13 recipients that benefitted from the ViSalus donations. The fellowship received 504 Vi-Shape® Nutritional Shake Mix pouches – the equivalent of 15,120 meals – and 1,350 Nutra-Cookies.

"Providing nutritional and portable meal options like ViSalus Shakes and Nutra-Cookies to the families who have been directly impacted by Sandy is so important at this time," shared Pastor Dave DeRonde, of the Grace Bible Fellowship. "ViSalus understands that families need to have access to healthy and nutritious food that tastes good regardless of their circumstances and our members are incredibly grateful to have substantive meals during this tough time."
