Walmart State Giving Program

Walmart grants prioritize hunger relief

The Walmart State Giving Program supports a variety of initiatives in the areas of education, workforce development, economic opportunity, health and wellness and environmental sustainability, but has given special priority to hunger relief efforts in the US “in order to support the record 1 in 6 Americans who do not know where their next meal is coming from.”  As hunger relief is now an integral part of the Foundation’s work, the Foundation seeks to fund initiatives that integrate hunger relief into the main focus areas listed above.

The foundation also has a particular interest in supporting veterans and military families, traditionally underserved groups, the disability community and people impacted by natural disasters.
