Why did Walmart give $1.3 billion (yes, billion) last year to causes around the world?
Last year, Walmart and the Walmart Foundation contributed $1.3 billion in cash and in-kind to address social and environmental issues around the world.
Such a mind-boggling sum speaks to the rising role of corporations as philanthropists – and, more broadly, the role of corporations in serving society through business as well as philanthropic initiatives.
So join us at the Ramsay Luncheon on December 3 to hear Kathleen McLaughlin, President of the Walmart Foundation and SVP of Sustainability at Walmart, discuss these trends using examples including sustainability, hunger relief, empowering women and disaster relief.
