Wal-Mart Foundation Donates $5 Million to Help Red Cross Chapters Prepare for Disasters

"At Wal-Mart, helping communities is what we do every day, and when a crisis strikes, that charge becomes an even greater priority," said Margaret McKenna, president of the Wal-Mart Foundation. "Our long-standing support of the American Red Cross is evidence of our commitment to supporting local disaster relief efforts. We are hopeful that the $5 million we have given to local Red Cross chapters across the country will result in the swift, effective response to disasters, and the development of resources before disaster strikes."
