To improve birth outcomes and save lives on a global scale, the organization is aiming to reach 50 million women annually with prenatal vitamins and minerals by 2030. Howard and Vitamin Angels’ work have been featured in a number of major news and media outlets including TODAY, CNN Money, Reader’s Digest, KTLA, Medium, Forbes, NY Post, Money Magazine, and Good Day LA as well as numerous industry specific publications.
