Together, Walmart and Sam’s Club associates, customers and members continue to help millions of children in communities across the U.S. and Canada receive the world-class treatment and care they need. Whether shopping in a store, club or online, customers and members helped change kids’ health to change the future. Local kids and families are supported by every dollar raised, creating ripple effects that will impact our community and world for years to come.
“Year in and year out, Walmart & Sam’s Club associates, customers, and members amaze us with their passion for our cause,” said Teri Nestel, President & CEO of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. “The creativity, kindness, and simple act of making the ask at the register continues to positively impact kids’ health in communities across the U.S. and Canada. Thank you, Walmart, and Sam’s Club associates for sparking good in your local community.”
Most families who end up at a children’s hospital did not expect it when waking up that morning. The funds raised through Walmart and Sam’s Club help kids get the care they need when they need it, no matter life’s circumstances.
Associates are instrumental in raising the critical funds needed for local children’s hospitals to help kids in their communities. Carey and Nathan have worked for Walmart since they were both in high school. Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals campaign was a time of year they both looked forward to. It grew to have a new meaning when they discovered their soon-to-be third child, Jaxson, had cysts on his neck during a late ultrasound. This led to several surgeries in Jaxson’s first year, and he continues to need medical treatment. Their local children’s hospital gives them the care they need during all the uncertainty.
Now, both Walmart store managers, Carey and Nathan, look at Jaxson each day and thank those who participate and encourage donations for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals every year. They create new and fun ways to raise funds and engage their associates in the cause that hits close to home.
“Walmart and Sam’s Club support of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals makes an impact right in our associates’ neighborhoods,” Julie Gehrki, Vice President, Walmart Foundation explains. “We are committed to helping people live better and our commitment to supporting children’s health and local children’s hospitals is an important part of how we spark good in communities around the country.”
For 36 years, Walmart and Sam’s Club associates across the country have supported the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals campaign, ensuring that kids and families receive the necessary support during the most difficult moments in their lives. Sam Walton, the founder of Walmart, expressed confidence in the associates when he formed the partnership with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals by saying, “The associates will amaze you.” Those words are absolutely true.

To create the list, Forbes and its market research partner, Statista, surveyed tens of thousands of Americans working for businesses with at least 500 employees. The respondents were asked to rate their employers on a variety of criteria, including working conditions, diversity, compensation packages, potential for development, and company image. This year’s survey also asked workers whether they would recommend their employer to friends and family members.
After the survey is completed, the full list is divided into 51 rankings, one for each of the 50 states, plus Washington, D.C. The list was published this week.
“We are incredibly honored to be consistently recognized among America’s and Pennsylvania’s best employers, by one of the country’s most respected business journals,” said James Benedict, AHN’s president. “AHN has worked hard over the last several years to build a culture of dignity, flexibility and opportunity for our caregivers, because we know they do their best work when they feel they are part of an organization that values their talents and supports their career development.”
Over the last few years, AHN has taken significant steps to promote clinician wellness and enhance the employee environment and work-life experience overall, particularly for front-line and bedside-nursing staff. In 2022, for example, AHN announced the launch of a new mobile internal staffing model that provides flexible staffing options for nurses, surgical technologists, and other team members.
In 2023, AHN announced the formation of a new digital nurse program that will allow nurses to virtually discharge and admit patients while working from home.
AHN, part of Highmark Health, is one of Pennsylvania’s largest employers, with 22,000 team members.
Also making the “America’s Best Employers by State” list in 2023 was United Concordia Dental, a dental insurer owned by Highmark Health, and Highmark’s Buffalo-based division, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York and Highmark Northeastern New York. Two Highmark strategic partners, Penn State Health and Christiana Care, appeared on the list as well.
Earlier this year, Highmark Health was named to the Forbes list of “America’s Best Employers” for the second consecutive year, in the “large employers” category.
Forbes magazine has been published since 1917 and is well known for its business and finance coverage as well as its popular lists and rankings.
