Will you join with us and light a candle for change?

All across America, and in your local community, we are hosting candlelight vigils to pray for Wal-Mart to change for the better this Holiday season.

We'd like to personally invite you to attend your local community candlelight vigil this week:

Join a candlelight vigil near you

As part of our national "Hope for the Holidays" campaign, we are bringing together faith leaders, community leaders, civil rights leaders, and grassroots supporters in cities and towns all across the country to call on Wal-Mart to be a more responsible, moral employer.

You live within 15 miles of one of our local candlelight vigils. So, please join us and light a candle for all of Wal-Mart’s employees and their families this holiday season.

This is a time of year to remember and embrace the best of our values. It is a time to reflect upon our lives, our families, and the solemn responsibility we all have to improve the world for everyone.

Let’s remind Wal-Mart that our faith teaches us to do "what is right and just."

In the common ground of all of our faiths, our candlelight vigils will call on Wal-Mart to put families first, to change for the better, and to embrace the simple fact that "with great wealth comes great responsibility."

Join us in calling on Wal-Mart to live up to that responsibility.

Thanks for all you do,

The WakeUpWalMart.com Team

PS: Don't forget to send us pictures from your event - just email them to info@wakeupwalmart.com. We will post our favorites in our photo gallery.
