Walmart Gives $200,000 to 10 Nonprofits on the 12th Day of Holiday
Facebook Campaign

Company funds organizations in Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Oregon,
Pennsylvania and Texas

BENTONVILLE, Ark., Dec. 23, 2011 – On the 12th and last day of its “12 Days of Giving” Facebook campaign, Walmart is
awarding $200,000 to 10 nonprofits that are true heroes for their communities and have made selfless acts to help those in
need. Over the last twelve consecutive days, Walmart awarded a total of $1.5 million to 145 organizations in all 50 states,
Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico.
Organizations being honored on the company's Facebook page today are serving communities in: Arkansas, Connecticut,
Florida, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Texas.
“Every community needs a hero—someone who is willing to take extraordinary and selfless action to help those in need,”
said Julie Gehrki, senior director at the Walmart Foundation. “We are honored to give these inspirational community heroes
the recognition they deserve and do a small part to help them achieve their mission.”
Walmart’s call for nominations for its "12 Days of Giving" Facebook campaign resulted in more than 5,400 nominations from
Facebook users who shared photos and short descriptions of a nonprofit’s impact in its local community. A panel from the
Walmart Foundation reviewed submissions and selected nonprofits with a focus on organizations that are providing basic
needs such as food, shelter, clothing and baby supplies.
The 12th day of giving highlights organizations started by extraordinary heroes, young and old, who unselfishly opened their
homes and dedicated great amounts of time to provide food, clothing, shelter and a supportive environment for those in their
community who needed help. The organizations being spotlighted today include:
