Insights

Walmart renews a charitable partnership with The Salvation Army, matching donations to support holiday relief through December 24, 2025.

Walmart amplifies consumer giving by matching Holiday Meal Donation contributions up to $500,000 and online/app Round-Up donations up to $1,000,000, while hosting in-store Red Kettles and Angel Tree programs. This structure converts routine retail transactions into directed charitable flows and raises visibility for community programs without creating new financial liabilities for the charity or Walmart beyond the pledged matches.

The initiative depends on customer participation levels between November 15, 2025 and December 24, 2025 for kettle and Holiday Meal activity, and specifically between December 2, 2025 and December 24, 2025 for Round-Up matches. Key risks include underutilization of matching windows and uneven local adoption of Angel Tree participation; the announcement does not state how quickly matches will be paid or whether limits are pro-rated.

Watch donation uptake and match exhaustion through December 24, 2025 and local distribution reports showing meals, toys, or shelter assistance delivered. Also monitor participation rates at in-store Red Kettles starting November 15, 2025 and online Angel Tree orders through December 15, 2025 to gauge near-term community impact.

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Nov. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As families across the country prepare for the holidays, Walmart and The Salvation Army are teaming up once again to meet the growing needs of communities nationwide. Walmart is doubling down on its commitment to help fight hunger and provide hope to those facing hardship by matching customer donations through two special giving opportunities this holiday season.

From now through December 24, Walmart will match donations through the Holiday Meal Donation process, up to $500,000. In addition, between December 2 and December 24, Walmart will match online and app Round-Up donations, up to $1 million. These matching initiatives will amplify the impact of every dollar given, ensuring more families receive food, shelter, and essential support during one of the most challenging seasons of the year.

"Across the country, more families are turning to The Salvation Army for help putting food on the table and keeping a roof over their heads," said Commissioner Merle Heatwole, National Commander of The Salvation Army. "Thanks to Walmart and its customers, we'll be able to provide meals, housing assistance, and critical resources for those who otherwise might go without this holiday season."

While many families continue struggling with the cost of living and reductions in food assistance programs, local nonprofits are experiencing record demand for help. Through its long-standing partnership with Walmart, The Salvation Army will provide meals, toys, and essential services to millions of people in need – ensuring hope shines bright this holiday season.

"We know our customers and members care deeply about their communities, especially during the holidays," said Julie Gehrki, Senior Vice President at Walmart. "By working with The Salvation Army once again, we're able to offer even more ways for them to give back. Whether they choose to donate at the register, round up their total online or contribute to support efforts to provide meals to families in need, we're making it easier than ever for customers and members to help out. We're thankful for their generosity and excited to see the impact it will have in communities across the country."

For more than 40 years, Walmart and The Salvation Army have partnered to bring hope to millions across the country.
