Hamilton Haven received Wal-Mart grant

PRESCOTT — The Walmart Community Grant Program has awarded $1,000 to Hamilton Haven.

The grant came via the Hope Walmart location. Each year, Walmart U.S. stores and Sam’s Clubs award local cash grants ranging from $250 to $5,000. These local grants are designed to address the unique needs of the communities where Walmart and Sam’s Club stores operate.

“Our hope is to remain present in the community. We are appreciative of Walmart as they partner with us to meet the housing needs of families,” said Hamilton Haven Executive Director Michele Hamilton Rhodes.

Hamilton Haven opened in April 2020 to provide temporary, emergency housing for those displaced due to fire, flood, or other natural disasters.

We are so grateful for Walmart’s continued support,” Hamilton Haven Assistant Executive Director Christy Higginbotham said. “Receiving this community grant helps us help our community – the neighbors whom we host in Hamilton Haven.”

Public Relations Coordinator Nathan Tidwell added that this is the third consecutive year Hamilton Haven has received a grant through this program.
