Our Approach to Giving Back

We are a global business with stores located on three continents and in thousands of communities around the world. Our community relations mission is to deliver great value to our communities by helping vulnerable families and children access the resources and opportunities they need to build a better future. Supporting the communities where our Associates live and work is important to us. There are several ways in which we offer our support:

• Foundation Giving: Through our three foundations in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, we provided philanthropic grants to more than 2,000 organizations in Fiscal 2024. These grants included support for national charitable groups and donations to local charities. 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 vulnerable women access the skills and support they need so that they and their families can thrive in life.

• The TK Maxx and Homesense Foundation (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 conduct charitable campaigns that support various non-profit organizations. Some examples include selling merchandise that benefits select organizations and point-of-sale fundraising.

• Associate Volunteerism, Engagement, and Giving: Associates contribute to the success of many of our programs through charity nominations, volunteerism, and in-store fundraising events, as well as through their own donations. Throughout Fiscal 2024, TJX Associates engaged in various efforts to support causes they were passionate about, including participating in food and clothing drives, volunteering to help women and young people access mentoring, walks to raise money, education, and workforce opportunities. In addition, TJX Associates in the U.S., Europe, and Canada have the opportunity to nominate local organizations to receive grants from our foundations. In Fiscal 2024, TJX supported more than 1,250 Associate Nominated Grants, which have included focuses on education, medical care, food insecurity, and providing support for people with disabilities.

As with all of our corporate responsibility initiatives, we aim for continuous improvement with our community relations efforts, as we believe this is in the interest of the communities and partners we support. We regularly communicate with our community partners to understand the impact they believe our support has had and how we can continue to make a difference.

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 and provide additional ways in which we think about our charitable giving:

• Disaster Relief: TJX supports communities in need when unexpected disasters strike. We have contributed generously for over 25 years to Red Cross chapters worldwide and to other organizations that help local communities rebuild and provide clean water, safe shelter, and hot meals in the wake of devastating disasters. In addition to supporting the Red Cross, in Fiscal 2024, The TJX Foundation supported the Maui Food Bank in Hawaii to help provide hunger relief and aid to those affected by the Maui wildfires; The TJX Canada Foundation donated to and helped raise money through local fundraising for the International Disaster Relief Fund to support those affected by the wildfires in Canada; and The TK Maxx and Homesense Foundation donated to the British Red Cross and the German Red Cross to support their emergency appeal helping those affected by the earthquakes in Turkey, Syria, and Morocco.

• Inclusion & Diversity: As a business, we do not tolerate discrimination or harassment of any kind, and we remain committed to supporting inclusion and diversity and increased access to opportunities for all. As part of these efforts, TJX continues to provide support to communities of color, expanding existing partnerships and creating new ones with organizations in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia. We are also taking steps to support a more inclusive and diverse workplace; learn more about this work on our Inclusion and Diversity page.
