      ATLANTA, 12 de abril de 2023 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- En el decimocuarto año de su programa Retool Your School, The Home Depot® otorgó más de $2 millones en subvenciones a 36 Universidades y Colegios Universitarios Históricamente Afroamericanos (HBCU) para mejorar sus campus universitarios. Alabama A&M University, Coahoma Community College y Fisk University se ubicaron primeros en sus respectivos grupos de competidores, obteniendo una subvención de $150,000 cada uno. El programa Retool Your School 2023 se amplió para incluir $2 millones adicionales en subvenciones basadas en necesidades, como renovaciones de los Innovation Lounge (Salones de innovación), programas de pasantías y prácticas laborales, becas y más. 

      La celebración de los premios Retool Your School se llevó a cabo el martes 11 de abril en el Mercedes-Benz Stadium para celebrar a las instituciones educativas participantes y al programa del año 2023. El evento tuvo como anfitrión a Rashan Ali, actor, escritor y exalumno de un HBCU. Andre Dickens, alcalde de Atlanta, y Molly Battin, vicepresidenta sénior y directora de marketing de The Home Depot, comentaron a los asistentes la importancia de defender los HBCU de nuestra nación.

      "El compromiso de The Home Depot con los HBCU va más allá del apoyo financiero", señaló Molly Battin, vicepresidenta sénior y directora de marketing. "Reconocemos que los HBCU son fundamentales para el éxito académico y el desarrollo profesional tanto en las comunidades a las que prestan servicios como en nuestra nación en su conjunto. Hemos asumido el compromiso de preservar esa increíble historia y asegurarnos de que siga creciendo".

      Los HBCU participantes en el programa de subvenciones para mejoras en los campus se dividieron en tres grupos de acuerdo con su población estudiantil. Las diez instituciones educativas con la mayor cantidad de votos por grupo recibieron subvenciones que abarcan desde $40,000 hasta $150,000. Como parte del nuevo programa de subvenciones basadas en necesidades, diez instituciones también recibieron financiamiento para un Innovation Lounge, a fin de mejorar los espacios existentes en los campus donde los estudiantes pueden reunirse, generar ideas y colaborar.
