Deliver great value to our communities by helping vulnerable families and children access the resources and opportunities they need to build a better future.

Our Approach to Giving Back

We are a global business with stores located on three continents and in thousands of communities around the world. Supporting the communities where our Associates live and work is important to us and there are several ways in which we offer our support, including:

  • Foundation Giving: Through our three foundations in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, we have provided philanthropic grants to thousands of organizations over the years. These grants have included support for national charitable groups and donations to local nonprofits. Each of our foundations has its own focus that supports our global Community Relations mission:

  • The TJX Foundation (U.S.): Delivering great value to our communities by helping vulnerable families and children access the resources and opportunities they need to build a better future.

  • The TJX Canada Foundation (Canada): Helping women facing adversity access the skills they need to move forward and thrive in life.

  • The TK Maxx and Homesense Foundation opens in new window (Europe): Helping vulnerable children, young people, and their families to achieve their potential in our local communities.

  • Cause Marketing and In-store Fundraising: Our retail chains in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia conduct charitable campaigns that support various nonprofit organizations. Some examples include selling merchandise that benefits select organizations, point-of-sale fundraising, or direct donations.

  • Associate Volunteerism, Engagement, and Giving: Associates contribute to the success of many of our programs through nonprofit nominations, volunteerism, and in-store fundraising events, as well as through their own donations. Throughout Fiscal 2026, TJX Associates engaged in various efforts to support causes they were passionate about, including participating in food and clothing donation drives; creating unique pieces of artwork for local hospitals; hosting events like fundraising trivia nights and events to pack kits and boxes with supplies, clothing, and more; participating in bike rides and walks to raise money; and supporting education and workforce opportunities. Additionally, TJX Associates in the U.S., Europe, and Canada have the opportunity to nominate local organizations to receive grants from our foundations. In Fiscal 2026, TJX supported more than 1,600 Associate Nominated Grants, providing donations to organizations focused on education, medical research and care, food insecurity, housing insecurity, mental health support, support for people with disabilities, and environmental sustainability, among others.

We believe it is important to collaborate with our nonprofit partners to understand the evolving needs in our communities. We regularly discuss the impact they believe our support has had and how we can continue to make a difference. In addition to collaborating with our partners, across the globe TJX makes an effort to understand the needs in our communities. For example, TJX Europe recently worked to better understand emerging themes where they operate to help identify partners best positioned to address priorities within local communities. This work enables us to create meaningful, authentic contributions in the places where we live and work.

Other Ways We Give

Our core values of honesty, integrity, and treating each other with dignity and respect have been at the heart of our business since the beginning. These values, combined with our Community Relations mission, play a key role in our approach to how we support communities.

In addition to our giving strategies mentioned above, we consider other ways we might give and have responded to current needs, including:

  • Disaster Relief: To support communities in need when unexpected disasters strike, we have contributed to Red Cross chapters worldwide for over 25 years and to other organizations that help local communities. We have contributed to these organizations annually, so that in the wake of devastating disasters they are able to quickly help communities rebuild and provide clean water, safe shelter, and hot meals. In addition to our annual donations, in Fiscal 2026, The TK Maxx and Homesense Foundation donated to support on the ground trauma assistance for a crisis affecting a local school community in Austria. In Canada, Winners, Homesense, and Marshalls held point of sale fundraisers to raise money in response to widespread wildfires that took place in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Newfoundland and Labrador.

  • Inclusion & Diversity: As a business, we continue to support inclusion and diversity and increased access to opportunities for all by providing assistance to under-resourced communities in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia. We also continue to support an inclusive and diverse workplace, and we do not tolerate discrimination or harassment, as referenced in our Global Code of Conduct (PDF) Opens in new window.
