Open When It Matters Most Sarah R. had just arrived at her Scottsdale, AZ, vacation rental after a long day of travel. In the weeks planning for the trip, Sarah checked (and double checked) that the rental would have a pack-and-play for her little one. But when they arrived, it wasn’t there. She called the closest Target store 15 minutes before it closed, hoping for a miracle. Sammy M. and the rest of our team at T-1327 Far North Scottsdale did one better. They pulled the pack-and-play and staged the checkout for a quick transaction once Sarah arrived. “As the store director, it fills me with so much pride that Sammy and team know the importance of taking care of our guests — that they show up every day with it top of mind.” —Kinsey K., store director, T-1327 Far North Scottsdale When Sarah pulled up well past closing time, our team was outside cheering for her. Since then, Sammy has been promoted from a service advocate to Target security specialist and continues to do everything he can to delight guests and deliver joy. Our team is what makes us special. It is how we support families and strengthen our communities every day.

Our heart and hands go out to Hawaii Even before the Kona storms hit Hawaii last month, our crisis response, store and supply chain teams were doing all they can to help. Thanks to their efforts, our T-3032 flow center in Mililani sent 18 pallets of water to stores in the area and our T-2660 store in Maui reopened after only 16 days. “Target’s contributions have made a tremendous difference in helping families begin to recover. We are so grateful for your partnership and for the care you’ve shown our community during this challenging time.” — Māhealani Carbonell, Director of Sourcing & Donor Relations, Maui Food Bank For this disaster, we have pledged $100K to non-profits across the state like the Hawaii Community Foundation, Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement, Hawaii Food Bank and more. While T-2660 was closed for repairs, team members loaded trucks with more than 70 pallets of donated food for the Maui Food Bank. See our team members in action across the islands and the store’s before and after below. This is what it looks like to lead with action. To meet urgency with coordination. To serve with purpose. Proud of our teams across Hawaii who continue to show up and make a real impact where it counts.

Asked and Answered – A Peek into Sustainability at Target Meet Rachel S., Lead Program Manager in Property Management, who answers some questions about her recent experience opening the new Delano, CA solar store. Q: Tell me about yourself, how you came to Target, and why you stay at Target. A: I’ve been with Target 18 years. I’ve had a lot of different roles, which is part of what keeps me here. I’ve led solar development on the Energy team for 6 years now. This industry is always changing in different ways, which is why they call it the solar-coaster. I’ve led over 100 rooftop solar installations at our stores and distribution centers. Our brand new Delano, CA store is one of the first new stores that we’ve opened with solar. Q: What were the key sustainability goals and operational outcomes your team prioritized for the Delano Net Zero energy store? A: There is a new California Energy Code that requires solar and storage when opening a new store. Rather than simply meet the basic requirements, we wanted to do something special at Delano. We used consumption patterns from similarly-sized stores in nearby locations to help us estimate the anticipated annual electricity consumption at the site. A lot goes into the behind the scenes to building a store, especially one as special as Delano, CA. And team members like Rachel help power important initiatives, like our commitment to zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040.
