The Home Depot Foundation – Thank you!

Good afternoon everyone,

We’re so grateful you could join us last week in Colorado for the extremely successful Decor Foundation fundraising event! Your event raised $7.8 million because of dedicated supporters like you. We appreciate your commitment to take care of our veterans and communities impacted by natural disasters.

Thank you so much for your hard work at Fort Carson and Greccio Housing. The students are thrilled to use their new playground and outdoor classroom in just a few weeks! The residents at the Greccio Housing facilities are humbled by the investment you made into their lives and could not be more thankful.

Because we reached our #ServiceSelfie challenge, the school will get upgrades to the teachers’ lounge and Greccio will receive renovations to its food pantry.

Several local media outlets covered the projects resulting in 809,000 impressions. You can see some of the coverage below.
