A.N.A.'s Friends was selected for its work supporting children in Southwest Florida who have been abused, neglected or abandoned. The nonprofit helps meet basic needs, create meaningful childhood experiences and support youth through critical developmental stages, serving thousands of children in the region each year.

"This program gives our entire community a voice in how support is shared, and that matters deeply for the children we serve," said Jessica Stanfield, CEO of A.N.A.'s Friends. "When someone takes a moment to cast a vote, they are helping create stability, dignity and opportunity for a child who may be facing some of the most difficult circumstances of their life. It's a simple action, but it has the power to shape a child's future in a lasting way."

Through the Target Circle program, guests help direct millions of dollars in charitable giving each year. As of July 2023, more than $26.9 million has been donated to over 5,500 nonprofits nationwide through guest participation.
