The Home Depot Foundation

The Home Depot Foundation generously supports the National Building Museum's sustainability initiatives. Established in 2002, the foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization that furthers the community building goals of The Home Depot by providing additional resources to assist nonprofit organizations.

The Home Depot Foundation has seen firsthand how increasing access to affordable housing changes people's lives, gives them hope and alleviates years of frustration.  Since its formation, The Home Depot Foundation has granted $70 million to nonprofit organizations and supported the development of more than 50,000 affordable, healthy homes.

While focused on building affordable homes, The Home Depot Foundation is also committed to improving the overall health of our communities.  Taking a long-term, comprehensive approach to building healthy, stable communities where families can thrive, the Foundation invests in the planting and restoration of trees along streets, in parks and in schoolyards; the building and refurbishment of community play spaces; and the revitalization of school facilities.
