Every year, the Target
Store Grant program provides grants to K-12 schools and other nonprofit
organizations working to provide reading and arts programs for children
and youth. Target Early Childhood Reading Grants are awarded to schools,
libraries, and nonprofit organizations to support programs such as
afterschool reading events and weekend book clubs. Grants are intended
to help foster a love of reading and encourage children, preschool
through third grade, to read with their families.
Target Arts and Culture in Schools Grants are intended to enhance
classroom curricula by bringing music, dance, drama, and visual arts
programs into the classroom. These grants are designed to help bring
performers to schools so children can experience the arts and learn new
forms of self-expression. Eligible programs include in-school
performances, artist in residency programs, and workshops in schools.
