Walmart & Sam’s Club SPARK GOOD to Change Kids’ Health at CHKD

Walmart and Sam’s Club spark good to change kids’ health at Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters (CHKD) in Norfolk, Virginia, through Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN Hospitals). CHKD wants to ensure kids in our community can lead healthy, fulfilling lives. But they can’t do it alone.

Walmart and Sam’s Club share a basic belief – that every child deserves the chance to live better. That’s why they support CMN Hospitals in raising critical funds for local children’s hospitals to spark good and help change kids’ health.

June 12 – July 14, you can donate in-store at Walmart and Sam’s Club locations throughout Hampton Roads, northeastern North Carolina, and the Eastern Shore, as well as on Walmart.com and in the Walmart app. Additionally, Walmart and Sam’s Club associates are the heart of the campaign, as so many have strong relationships with their local children’s hospitals. They lead creative fundraising activities and events throughout the campaign including:

Cookouts, bake sales, popcorn sales and more!
The Suffolk Walmart College Drive Car Show to benefit CHKD – June 17th
The Suffolk Walmart Main Street Car Show to benefit CHKD – July 9th

Each dollar raised locally at Walmart and Sam’s Club helps CHKD provide treatments and support patients desperately need today, so that they can fulfill their potential for tomorrow.

Patients like Kahmari, who will need treatment throughout his life for gastroschisis, including monthly biologic infusions or blood transfusions. Kahmari is a shining light to his family and the gastrointestinal (GI) and infusion teams at his children’s hospital, who have become family to him. Thanks to the funds raised through CMN Hospitals, it helps aid the GI team at his local children’s hospital, benefiting his current and future treatment planning.

And CHKD couldn’t help kids like Kahmari without the generosity of millions of customers and members who shop in Walmart stores, Sam’s Clubs and online.

Walmart and Sam’s Club have been proud partners of CHKD for more than 33 years, and have raised more than $13 million locally for CHKD. Their support brings joy and hope to kids treated at CHKD.
