A powerful message from a powerful leader!

Last Thursday night at our Kiss a Pig Press Party, presented by Abbott, we were honored to feature a special recorded message from our 2027 Kiss a Pig Honorary Chair, Ralph Clare, EVP, Walmart Health & Wellness.

His message was brought to life beautifully on the Product Connections big screen, inspiring our ambassadors, supporters, and community to come together, raise funds, and make a meaningful impact in the fight against diabetes.

As we celebrate 25 years of Kiss a Pig, Ralph’s words reminded us of the heart behind this campaign and the power we have when we come together for a worthy cause.

Businesses and individuals, we want you to be part of this year’s movement! Whether you become a sponsor, donate to our campaign, contribute to our silent auction, join us as a volunteer, or simply help spread the word, there is a place for you in the fight against diabetes. Get involved today and help us make the 25th year of Kiss a Pig our biggest and most impactful yet! 🐷
