Since 1946, Target has given 5 percent of its income to support and enrich the communities it serves. Today that equals more than $3 million every week to support education, the arts, social services and volunteerism, plus a commitment to contribute $1 billion for education by 2015. Target’s community investments include a six-year partnership with Points of Light as lead and title sponsor of the National Conference on Volunteering and Service, serving as presenting sponsor of the Excellence in Education track that provides programming focused on innovative, citizen-driven solutions that are making an impact on the challenges of America’s K-12 education system. Target and Points of Light have also joined together on a variety of cause-related efforts including leadership support and promotion of National Volunteer Week, the initial launch of Target’s nationally recognized School Library Makeover program and the I WILL 9/11 tenth anniversary education programming that engaged tens of thousands of teachers and youth.
