Walmart and Sam’s Club team up to spark good and make big change for all kids

Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up healthy and strong. This summer, Walmart and Sam’s Club are partnering with CHRISTUS Children’s, a Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) hospital, to raise life-changing funds for children’s healthcare.

From June 8 through July 5, customers and members can “Spark Good” for children in their community by donating at the register, online at helpkidslivebetter.org or through the Walmart app by rounding up and selecting your local CMN hospital.

“The Spark Good. Make Big Change for All Kids. campaign is essential to helping us deliver exceptional, compassionate care to every patient and family we serve, regardless of their ability to pay,” said Josh Rendon, vice president of CHRISTUS Children’s Foundation. “Through the unwavering support of Walmart and Sam’s Club associates, who actively engage customers, members and their communities, we are able to meet urgent needs and take on some of today’s most complex pediatric health challenges.”

Walmart and Sam’s Club have raised more than $1 billion for CMN since 1987. This year, they aim to build on that legacy and make an even greater impact. Donations made through this campaign stay local, supporting critical medical equipment, innovative research and accessible, family-centered care programs essential to children’s health and healing.

Funds raised help patients like Quincy continue to thrive and reach new milestones. At just two years old, Quincy was referred to The Heart Center at CHRISTUS Children’s, where an echocardiogram revealed multiple congenital heart defects requiring urgent surgical care. He underwent a complex seven-hour procedure and, after a brief stay in the pediatric intermediate care unit, was able to return home to continue his recovery surrounded by family.

Today, Quincy is doing phenomenal, a testament to the expert, compassionate care provided by the specialists at CHRISTUS Children’s. The Heart Center delivers comprehensive, life-saving treatment for children with complex heart conditions like Quincy’s, ensuring families have access to advanced pediatric care close to home.

This year, Quincy is proud to share his story, inspiring the community, raising awareness for pediatric healthcare and bringing smiles to everyone he meets.

Together, we can make big change for all kids.
