Program Mission

Celebrating the 15th year, The Home Depot strives to give back to our nation’s HBCUs what they have so generously given to their communities: a strong foundation, renewed purpose and distinctive character. Since 2009, the Retool Your School Program has provided over $12.1 million in grants that allow HBCUs to make sustainable improvements to their campuses.
