Respect for the Individual and Corporate Contributions

Last Updated: Tuesday, November 21, 2006

Respect for the individual is one of the core values that have made us into the company we are today.  We take pride in the fact that we treat every customer, every supplier and every member of our individual communities fairly and equally.

We are working hard to make our corporate contributions reflect the values of our customers, communities, and associates.  As Sam Walton said, “Each Wal-Mart store should reflect the values of its customers and support the vision they hold for their community.

Wal-Mart will not make corporate contributions to support or oppose highly controversial issues unless they directly relate to our ability to serve our customers.

Wal-Mart does not have a position on same sex marriage and we do not give preference to gay or lesbian suppliers.   Wal-Mart does have a strong commitment to diversity among our associates and against discrimination everywhere.
