More than 300 million women and children worldwide have received life-changing vitamins and minerals through Walgreen and Vitamin Angel's 8-year partnership.

In today's episode, EFG's Alli Murphy is joined by Lauren Stone, Director of CSR at Walgreens, and Katelyn Harbison Associate Director of Global Partnerships at Vitamin Angels.

The trio talks about their 8-year partnership, the prenatal vitamin pilot program they recently launched in 16 Walgreens stores across Chicago, and the importance of the work they're doing in the public health space.

• Lauren & Katelyn's advice for building robust, multi-year partnerships
• How the duo has evolved their campaigns over time
