Today, we actively seek veterans as associates to help us run our stores and shape the future of our business.Walmart is the nation's largest private employer, and has tremendous resources to greatly assist vets.

On Veterans Day 2010, Walmart and the Walmart Foundation committed $10 million to serve the veteran community, placing a special emphasis on supporting job readiness and training.
