A Milestone of Giving: Target Celebrates Over 1 Million Volunteer Hours in 2023

Sample article from our Retail & Omnichannel

February 21, 2024 (press release) –

At Target, we’re driven by our purpose to help all families discover the joy of everyday life. One way our incredible team lived that purpose in 2023? Volunteering for over 1 million hours in communities across the country and around the globe. This industry-leading volunteerism milestone not only underscores our commitment to the communities we serve, but also highlights how we use our size and scale to make a meaningful impact.

This industry-leading milestone demonstrates Team Target’s care in action.
Top causes included community development, wealth-building economic opportunity and hunger relief (with in-kind donations).
It’s the fourth time in Target history that we’ve reached this milestone.
 

Our incredible Target team members pour energy, talent and heart into the community every day. Reaching this million-hour milestone reflects our purpose in action, and it’s a testament to the extraordinary impact Team Target can have when we band together and serve.

Kiera Fernandez Chief Community Impact and Equity Officer

Galvanized into action

There’s a unique story behind each volunteer hour. A couple of examples? Jennifer M., human resources executive team leader, gave back to the Move Mountains organization after it supported her family through Hurricane Ian. Pez E., human resources expert, poured her hours into supporting Tewa Woman United, an organization that helped her through the delivery of her son.

 

I am grateful to our dedicated team whose passion and generosity have made this remarkable milestone possible. Together we’re building stronger, more vibrant communities. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this outstanding accomplishment.

Ron Brown Vice President of Community Impact

Congratulations to the team for bringing us one step closer to a world where all families and communities have the resources they need to realize joy. Learn more about Target’s volunteerism efforts, including our annual Great Giftogether holiday giving event.
