Walmart Partnership: Proud to partner with Walmart.

Bringing joy, essentials and opportunity to families nationwide.

New. Never hand-me-down.

Every foster youth and family lands somewhere safe.

These families have had enough hand-me-downs. Because of Walmart, every foster youth and family we serve lands somewhere safe, with things that are theirs and brand new.

How it works

From surplus to stability.

  1. Step 1: Recover

    Surplus goods are redirected from landfills to communities that need them.

  2. Step 2: Distribute

    Our nationwide logistics network delivers to vetted nonprofit partners.

  3. Step 3: Train

    Participants build warehouse and logistics skills through FAH workforce programs.

  4. Step 4: Hire

    Trained candidates apply for warehouse roles with Walmart.

Community events

Massive toy giveaways and stadium events.

From the Summer with Santa Toy Distribution to large-scale stadium events, we bring essential goods and joy directly to thousands of families, and we're just getting started.
