For the 12th straight year, Walmart and Sam’s Club locations nationwide will take part in the “Fight Hunger, Spark Change Campaign.” The campaign seeks to inspire customers to take action and help provide access to the nourishing food people need to thrive. Here’s how it works:
From now through March 31, shoppers can participate by:
- Donating at the checkout. Customers can donate at the register in stores or clubs or round up their purchases at Walmart.com and the Walmart app.
- Purchasing participating products. A portion of proceeds from specially marked products purchased in store or online at Walmart.com or SamsClub.com will be donated to the campaign.
- Making a direct donation online. People can give directly to the campaign at either www.feedingamerica.org/walmart or www.feedingamerica.org/samsclub.
Last year, Western Slope Walmart and Sam’s Club shoppers raised enough funds for Food Bank of the Rockies to provide nearly 500,000 meals to individuals and families across Colorado.
“Every donation – big or small – makes a difference. Together, we can ensure no one has to worry about where their next meal is coming from,” said Sue Ellen Rodwick, Western Slope Director for Food Bank of the Rockies.
