In 2009, The Home Depot launched the Retool Your School Campus Improvement Grant Program to award grants to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) for campus renovations, repairs and enhancements. Over the years, the program has attempted to give back to HBCUs some of what they have so generously given to their students, alumni and communities: a strong foundation, a renewed purpose and a distinctive character. Since its inception, the Retool Your School Program has awarded 184 campus improvement grants totaling over $5.2 million.
Scholarships
For many years, The Home Depot has partnered with the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) to provide scholarships. In 2023, these scholarships will be brought under the Retool Your School umbrella. The program will offer 60 scholarships worth $2500 each. Students at any private or public HBCU may apply even if their HBCU does not participate in the Campus Improvement Grant competition.
