Walmart’s “Fight Hunger. Spark Change.” campaign encouraged people across the nation to take action against hunger and help families in need through simple acts of support online and in-store purchases and donations. Nationwide, the campaign raised more than $17 million to support the Feeding America nationwide network of food banks.

With one in seven Americans currently struggling with hunger nationally, according to the USDA, hunger is a problem that also has local implications in every community across the United States. Watch how our Pleasant Grove, Arkansas store partners with the NW Arkansas Food Bank to make a difference locally.
