Walmart and Sam’s Club Spark Good. Change Kids’ Health.
The annual fundraising campaign has raised more than $1 billion for member children’s hospitals across the U.S.
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (June 9, 2025) – Walmart and Sam’s Club are set to launch their annual “Spark Good. Change Kids’ Health.” campaign, inviting customers and members to donate at registers, online, and through the Walmart app from June 9 to July 6. This vital fundraising effort directly supports Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMN Hospitals) across the U.S. and Canada, ensuring local children’s hospitals have the resources needed to provide essential care.
Meet Gian
This year’s campaign highlights inspiring stories, including that of Gian. At just three years old, Gian faced a Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) diagnosis, a condition that progressively weakens muscles. Yet, with his family’s unwavering support, the specialized expertise of Gillette Children’s, and crucial funding from CMN Hospitals, Gian continues to overcome every challenge. Roberto, Gian’s father and a dedicated Walmart Market Manager, witnessed firsthand the exceptional care at Gillette Children’s. Thanks to CMN Hospitals’ critical funds, Gian receives vital treatments and therapies, empowering him to maintain his strength and independence with unwavering hospital support.
