Mississippi Walmart and Sam’s Clubs accepting donations for Red Cross Hurricane Helene relief efforts through Oct. 13

Walmart, Sam's Club and the Walmart Foundation announced an initial $6M commitment to support Hurricane Helene relief efforts, including donations of food, water, essential supplies and grants to organizations providing relief.

As part of the commitment, Mississippi Walmart and Sam's Clubs customers can help support the relief efforts. From Sept. 30 to Oct. 13, Walmart will help magnify their impact by matching their donations to the American Red Cross 1:1, up to $2.5 million, when they donate to support hurricane relief at the registers in stores and clubs and on Walmart.com.

Walmart also is working with nonprofits and suppliers to bring much-needed resources into communities without access to power, such as free meals, WiFi hotspots, charging stations and laundry and shower services.

Throughout the recovery, Walmart will continue looking for ways to support associates, customers, members and their families.
