Our work to bring solutions that better serve our communities and our environment can be seen across our business — from our inclusive and sustainable product assortments and the increasing renewable energy footprint in our operations, to our social justice commitments and philanthropic support of underserved communities at home and around the world.

Target Forward builds on this foundation, continues work toward these commitments, and sets new goals to accelerate our ambitions and drive for additional change that is good for all.
