Walmart Foundation Expands Hunger Relief Efforts, Donates More Than $7.8 Million to Support Summer Feeding Programs and U.S. Food Banks

Currently, Walmart supercenters and Neighborhood Markets in 2,101 locations - in addition to more than 450 Sam's Club locations across the U.S. - are participating in the company's food donation program. By the end of 2009, Feeding America expects its affiliated community food banks nationwide to be connected with each of Walmart's supercenters and Neighborhood Markets, and its Sam's Club locations to transport food from store shelves to the tables of families in need - often in less than 24 hours.
