LAS VEGAS, NV – March 25, 2025 – For the 12th consecutive year, Walmart and Sam’s Club locations nationwide, including in Las Vegas, are launching the Fight Hunger. Spark Change. campaign to help provide food and resources to those in need.
Running from March 1-31, shoppers can participate in three ways in stores and online:
- By donating at check-out in stores or clubs or round up at Walmart.com and the Walmart app.
- By purchasing participating products* in-store or online at Walmart.com or SamsClub.com. For every purchase of a participating product, the supplier will donate the monetary equivalent** of at least one meal ($0.10) on behalf of a Feeding America partner food bank at Walmart and five meals ($0.50) at Sam’s Club, up to applicable limits. See specially marked packages for full details.
- By donating at Feeding America’s Fight Hunger. Spark Change. campaign donation site at either www.FeedingAmerica.org/Walmart or www.FeedingAmerica.org/SamsClub
Since its inception in 2014, the campaign has generated more than $206 million and helped secure 2 billion meals* for the Feeding America® network of local food banks.
“We are grateful for longtime partners like Walmart and Sam’s Club, whose commitment helps meet the rising need in our community,” said Beth Martino, President and CEO of Three Square Food Bank. “With one in seven Southern Nevadans facing food insecurity, their annual initiative ensures more families have access to the nutritious food they need. Together, we are making meaningful strides toward a future where no one goes hungry.”
In 2023, 47.4 million people—1 in 7 Americans—experienced food insecurity, the highest level in a decade, emphasizing the need for more support.
“For the past 20 years, Feeding America, Walmart and Sam’s Club have worked together to fight hunger and help people live better in the communities we serve,” said Julie Gehrki, president, Walmart Foundation and senior vice president, philanthropy at Walmart. “During the Fight Hunger. Spark Change. campaign, we invite our customers and members to join us in providing access to food for our neighbors by supporting Three Sqaure.”
Participating suppliers at Walmart include General Mills, The Coca-Cola Company, Kraft Heinz, PepsiCo, Unilever, and more. Sam’s Club suppliers include Ferrero USA, Nestlé, and Kellanova.
