Walmart proudly supports the First Lady's nutrition initiative

Earlier today, First Lady Michelle Obama announced a major initiative calling for better access to and greater affordability of healthy foods for all Americans.  We invite you to share your thoughts on healthy living with our brief survey.

As the nation’s largest food retailer, Walmart knows firsthand how important it is to make healthy choices more convenient and more affordable for American families.  That’s why Walmart proudly supports the First Lady’s nutrition initiative. Click here to read our letter of support (Adobe PDF).

We are committed to helping American families put healthy foods on their tables.  We will use our position to reduce the cost of and increase access to healthy foods, as well as provide you and your family the information and tools you need to make healthy choices.  Your participation in our survey is a great way to support your community in this endeavor.

Best,

Chad Mitchell
