Our team members give hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours in their communities each year, making their neighborhoods safer, more vibrant places for everyone.

giving in the community

We provide a variety of opportunities for our team members to get involved in and support strong, healthy and safe communities through volunteerism. From renovating elementary school libraries and donating food to the hungry, to responding to disasters and reading with students, we encourage team members to choose activities that match their interests.

Team Member giving

Our team members have supported their communities through a giving campaign since 1962. In 2017, Target and individual team members donated more than $13 million, and team members also volunteered nearly 250,000 hours as part of our annual campaign.

tracking our hours

In 2017, Target team members donated more than 1 million volunteer hours to organizations and causes they love. In 2018, we are planning to once again give another one million hours in service to benefit the communities where we do business, work, live and play.
