Traffic to the Union-based retailer's website and app is up approximately 30 percent, and digital sales have doubled throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

The retailer bought the Hoboken-based e-commerce company for $3.3 billion four years ago.

The retailer's chief executive cited "the profound impact of COVID-19, hindering our ability to secure such a buyer and requiring us to wind down" after filing for bankruptcy earlier this year.

The Union-based company is teaming with nonprofit Good360 for its Bringing Home Everywhere program.

The organization said 12 of the e-commerce giant's fulfillment and sorting centers came together to make the contribution; First Bank gives more than $30,000 to 15 nonprofits providing pandemic relief.

Cindy Davis previously held leadership roles at Disney/ABC Television, Walmart, Sam's Club, Yum! Brands, Starwood Hotels and Hilton Hotels.

One location in New Jersey, and 15 others, were selected "based on a variety of factors, including the unique needs of the market, the current state of our business and real estate agreements," according to a spokesperson.

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and museum is donating $5 to pandemic relief from the sale of dolls bearing the likenesses of eight governors, along with Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx; elsewhere, Verizon contributed $1 million to the New Jersey Pandemic Relief Fund.

The target's products, which include cultivators, weeders, edgers, nut gatherers and hand tools, are available in hardware stores, farm stores, home improvement centers and big-box retailers.

The brand is also contributing more than $1 million to support the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
