TJX Foundation Grants

The TJX Foundation Grants support nonprofit organizations located within 15 miles of a TJX store that align with their community mission. Eligible areas include basic needs, education for at-risk youth, workforce training, and safety from domestic violence. Organizations must be a registered 501(c)(3) for at least 12 months and have a nondiscrimination policy. Applications are invited through a Letter of Inquiry, with funding decisions based on community impact.

NOTE: Check that your organization is located within 15 miles of a TJX store, distribution center or office to be eligible.
If your nonprofit aligns with the Community Mission and Giving Guidelines, please complete the eligibility questionnaire. If you pass the eligibility questionnaire, you will then have the opportunity to submit a Letter of Inquiry. Letters of Inquiry will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Following the submission of the Letter of Inquiry, selected nonprofits will receive an invitation to complete an application for funding. Applications are accepted by invitation only.
At this time, in addition to our support for current national and local nonprofit partners, we are accepting letters of inquiry from nonprofits seeking grant support in the following areas only:
