创造机会
沃尔玛（Walmart）最初是一个梦想，并以简单的投资开始 - 萨姆·沃尔顿（Sam Walton）在他的军装上站着，他以5,000美元的储蓄和公婆的贷款购买了商店，而第一家商店已经成长为world’s largest retail company, creating economic opportunity for millions of people around the world in retail and retail supply chains. Since 2015, Walmart and the Walmart Foundation have funded over $130 million to support projects designed to advance workers in retail and related sectors. Walmart is committed to a diverse workforce and announced in June 2020 it would commit a further $100 million over 5 years to create the Center for Racial Equity, which will address systematic racism in society head-on and accelerate change. The center will support philanthropic initiatives focused on the social determinants of health, strengthening workforce development and related educational systems, and criminal justice reform with an emphasis on examining barriers to opportunity faced by those exiting the system. Additionally, Walmart works to provide upskilling and educational opportunities for its workforce, including the company’s innovative Live Better U program, which provides associates with access to higher education for as little as $1 per day.
