You don't even need the Red Card. Go into your Target app, go to your account, click on "Target Circle" and then you scroll down to where it says "Vote for NonProfits".
I only learned about this a few months ago. I saw that I had accrued like 80 "votes" for non-profits. So you can go in there and distribute your votes to applicable non-profits in the area and presumably each vote is worth a fixed amount that is sent to them.
I know very little about the program other than using it as a consumer over the last few months. But hopefully that helps. I don't have the Target Red Card. But I use the app for savings, so I scan the app when I checkout at Target and i've been accruing these votes the whole time without realizing.
I agree with the point that there is a difference between a savings mindset and investment/growth mindset. One should invest in physical and mental health.
But a lot of the advice seems like narrative fallacies.

The article makes me wonder if a support group (nonprofit) for laif off tech professionals with the goal of alleviating the loneliness. It could be as simple as a weekly call with others who have been laid off.
If you have microservice A that depends on service B and both of the services are need to be updated for a change, then how do you avoid coordinating deployments to staging and production environment?
Scaling engineering velocity is also dependent on the domain and strategy. If the strategy is throw darts on the wall and see what sticks - one can scale independent teams. If the strategy is leverage what we have to build new features then teams have to communicate with each and this doesn't scale linearly.
Bret Victor has provided a first principles approach to solving climate change. I work at SolarCity we take a similar systems thinking approach and tackle the problems at their fundamental level. We have been vertically integrating the business from manufacturing highest efficiency solar panels, mounting systems that enable fast installation, electrical systems that can work with the grid, financing for homeowners that don't require any downpayment.
Our Software engineering team specifically works on improving efficiency of our sales workflow, geo spatial systems that support our installation crew, grid systems that monitor and work with the grid, and providing the best experience for our customers.
I'm happy to talk to anyone who is interested in joining us. Shoot me an email at mkumaraswamy@solarcity.com
SolarCity is America's largest solar power provider. We make clean energy available to homeowners, businesses, schools, non-profits and government organizations at a lower cost than they pay for energy generated by burning fossil fuels.
"Sustainable energy is the fundamental problem the world faces" - Elon Musk, Chairman of SolarCity, CEO of Tesla Motors, CEO of SpaceX
Our software team is working on the most interesting projects in the industry, some of them include:
* Internal tools to mobilize our workforce
* External apps to facilitate solar adoption
* Real time energy production and consumption monitoring
* Distributed energy management using battery storage
