Target gives away $3M every week to charity.  We worked with Target to let users decide where that money should go – and almost 300,000 votes later the results are in.

During the two-week campaign, Bullseye Gives generated incredible results and voter response, including:

  • Target Facebook Page added 97,091 new fans
  • During the campaign, the Target Facebook Page increased daily views by 4,800%
  • Target Facebook Page experienced a 3,000% surge in wall posts, with more than 3,000 personal stories shared throughout the campaign
  • More than 167,000 fans on Facebook voted for the charity of their choice
  • St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and American Red Cross received over 53% of total votes
