International Giving Program

The International Giving Program was established in cooperation with the Wal-Mart Foundation to give back to the communities where Wal-Mart's merchandise is produced and the retail market countries where merchandise is sold. We began this program in recognition that some countries where Wal-Mart's merchandise is produced are considered Less Developed Countries (LDCs), where development indicators such as literacy rate, education level, and health care are low. Working with well-respected organizations, Wal-Mart is supporting sustainable projects that expand educational opportunities for workers, their families, and their communities around the world.
