Help fight hunger in America!

One of the things that I like most about being a Walmart mom is having the opportunity to share the wonderful things they are doing to help feed the hungry in the United States. From building markets in areas which were formally food deserts, to associates volunteering at food banks and finally the partnerships with Feeding America to provide food for food deprived Americans.  Today I’d like to share the Spring Fight Hunger. Spark Change. campaign.

Walmart is working with six suppliers to help Feeding America secure 75 million meals for affiliate food banks across the country, to provide hunger relief to the millions of individuals who don’t know where their next meal will come from at some point during the year.

Through the Fight Hunger. Spark Change. campaign, Walmart is working with six suppliers — Campbell’s, ConAgra Foods, General Mills, Kellogg Company, Kraft, and Unilever — to give millions of customers an opportunity to help fight hunger in local communities.  This campaign is started April 6th and continues through May 3rd.  

There are 3 ways you can get involved to help fight hunger!

• Purchase: Purchase one of 239 participating products in Walmart stores nationwide and the supplier will make a donation to help Feeding America secure a meal on behalf of a local food bank. For every item purchased, a meal will be secured for the local Feeding America food bank.
