One of the partnerships I am most grateful for is with our High Schools across northern Wisconsin. This year, I had the privilege of working alongside Mitchell Hell and Olivia Dachel as we introduced updates to the Wisconsin Youth Apprentice Program. These changes now allow young adults to earn credit for working with us in paid positions, while also making a positive impact on our customers. I want to extend a special thank you to two outstanding partners: Carolyn Graf from Winter WI High School and Matthew Granberg from the LacCourte Oreilles Ojibwe School. Both schools graciously hosted events that gave us the opportunity to share our program with their students, and we are honored to welcome them into our extended family. We have some amazing Walmart associates/students in the picture below!
I want to recognize the leadership and support from Hayward Store Manager Danille Burnham, People Lead Julie Homuth, and Market Manager Tim Hullett, who were instrumental in making this program and our events a success. Thank you all for your dedication, partnership, and commitment to our shared mission!
