I am a participant in the Walmart Moms program. Join me and my fellow Walmart Moms, and see how much food we were all able to donate to help Fight Hunger! Walmart provided me with a gift card to purchase the food that was donated. Walmart has provided me with compensation for this blog post. Participation in this program is voluntary. As always, all opinions are 100% my own.
