New ways to spread more cheer and give back

On top of being able to donate the equivalent of a Thanksgiving meal to their local Salvation Army unit at Walmart.com/thanksgiving, customers can also round up any purchase on Walmart.com to benefit the organization. At participating Walmart stores and Sam's Clubs, customers can also donate to the Salvation Army Red Kettles or buy gifts for children in need through the Angel Tree program. These efforts build on Walmart and the Walmart Foundation's long-standing support of The Salvation Army. Last year, Walmart customers and Sam's Club members raised more than $34 million to support local Salvation Army units and Walmart and the Walmart Foundation have awarded more than $7 million to the organization over the last five years.

"We are deeply grateful for our longstanding partnership with Walmart. Their holiday contributions make a lasting difference, helping us provide vital services and hope to those in need. Together, we are making a meaningful impact this season," said Commissioner Kenneth Hodder, national commander of The Salvation Army.

Additionally, customers can purchase a Thanksgiving meal for a loved one – whether they're down the street or across the country. Customers can input their friend or family's address into Walmart.com, and an entire Thanksgiving meal can be delivered straight to their door, or ready for pickup at their local Walmart. It's just one more way Walmart is helping customers bring more joy to those they care about.

‘Tis the season to savor the savings

Whether it's the Thanksgiving meal, late-night snacks for the last-minute wrappers or stocking stuffer treats for the whole family, customers can trust that Walmart will offer consistently low prices across its wide food assortment no matter when, where or how customers shop, all season long.
