Home Depot Accepting Applications for Building Healthy Communities Grant Program
Deadline: September 15, 2009 and December 15, 2009
The Home Depot’s Building Healthy Communities Grant Program awards grants of up to $2,500 each to nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations, public schools, or tax-exempt public service agencies in the U.S. that are using the power of volunteers to improve the physical health of their community. Grants are made in the form of the Home Depot gift cards for the purchase or tools or materials.
Grants are for community improvement projects that include activities such as construction or refurbishment of affordable or transitional housing, building, rebuilding, painting, refurbishing, increasing energy efficiency or sustainability, landscaping, planting of native trees, community facility improvements, and the development and/or improvement of green spaces. Grants must support work completed by community volunteers in the United States.
Only registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, tax-exempt public schools, and tax-exempt public agencies in the U.S. are eligible to apply.
There are two remaining grant cycles for 2009. The next grant cycle opens July 15, 2009, and closes September 15, 2009; the final cycle opens October 15, 2009 and closes December 15, 2009.
All applicants are required to pass an eligibility quiz before being considered for a grant. Visit the Home Depot Web site for complete program information and eligibility quiz.
