Helping Build Better Futures

For more than four decades, delivering great value to our customers has been at the core of our business. In fact, providing value and caring for others have helped define our culture over the years and these principles extend beyond the walls of our stores and into our local communities around the world. As we considered where our community initiatives could have the most impact, it was important to us to focus on the intersection of these principles and areas of need for vulnerable families. Our global community mission is simple:

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 SOCIAL IMPACT AREAS

We bring our community relations mission to life by focusing our giving on four social impact areas that we believe are critical to helping families and children succeed and thrive.

• Fulfilling CRITICAL BASIC NEEDS
  
  
  
• Providing EDUCATION AND TRAINING
  
  
  
• Supporting RESEARCH AND CARE FOR LIFE-THREATENING ILLNESSES
  
  
  
• Preventing Domestic Violence
  
  
  

In addition to our key impact areas, we also support our communities when unexpected disasters strike.

OUR APPROACH TO GIVING BACK

We are a global business with stores located in thousands of communities around the world. There are several ways in which we organize our support:

• Foundation Giving: Through our foundations in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K., we provide philanthropic grants to selected non-profit organizations.
• Cause Marketing and In-store Fundraising: Our retail chains conduct charitable campaigns that align with one or more of our focus areas.
• Associate Volunteerism and Giving: We encourage our Associates around the world to contribute their time, talent, and resources in support of our mission to support vulnerable families and children.
