Frank Blake
Chairman & CEO
The Home Depot
The Home Depot was built on a set of values that define our culture and allow for our
success. These values, such as giving back, building strong relationships and doing the
right thing, aren’t just ideas that we talk about, they set the parameters for how we act and
for what we do. The Home Depot Foundation is a very important way that we live these
values and create significant positive impacts on communities across the country.
In 2007, The Home Depot Foundation celebrated its fifth anniversary, and we are proud to
reflect on its outstanding success in this report. In its five short years, the Foundation has
helped more than 50,000 working families by supporting the development of homes that
are healthy to live in and affordable to own. The Foundation works with its nonprofit
partners to ensure that these homes are energy- and water-efficient, use durable materials
and provide a safe and healthy place to live over the long term.
As we embark on 2008, we are
eager to strengthen our existing
partnerships and explore new
opportunities to build healthy,
affordable homes and strong,
stable communities.
While focused on building affordable
homes, the Foundation also is committed
to improving the overall health of our
communities. We take a comprehensive
approach when thinking about where a
family lives and accordingly, invest 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. In fact, since 2002,
the Foundation has supported the planting and preservation of one million trees, and in
2007, by volunteering with KaBOOM!, the associates of The Home Depot completed
1,000 playground projects in 1,000 days.
We are proud of these accomplishments and even more excited about the future.
The Home Depot Foundation has made a commitment to invest $400 million in grants
over the next 10 years, which will result in the development of 100,000 affordable, healthy
homes for working families and enable us to plant and preserve more than three million
community trees in urban areas.
This is a significant pledge, and one that we could not make without the ongoing support
and partnership of our supplier partners. Sharing in our commitment to give back to
our communities are more than 3,000 suppliers who fill the shelves of our stores. They
generously supported the Foundation in 2007, whether through financial donations, or
time spent volunteering at community projects. Their contributions are essential to the
Foundation’s ability to accomplish its goals.
As we embark on 2008, we are eager to strengthen our existing partnerships and explore
new opportunities to build healthy, affordable homes and strong, stable communities.

Neighbor w o o d s
Launched with support from The Home Depot Foundation in 2005 and led by the
Alliance for Community Trees (ACT), NeighborWoods is a national program that engages
communities and volunteers across the country to plant and care for trees. In 2007 alone,
more than 75,000 trees were planted or maintained in 74 cities. The Home Depot Foundation
supported large-scale planting, training and outreach events in 10 cities including
Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles and Nashville. More than 300 Team Depot volunteers
from 18 The Home Depot stores contributed 1,000 service hours.

Complementing the Foundation’s goals surrounding urban forestry,
the NeighborWoods program addresses canopy loss and promotes
livability in communities’ neighborhood-by-neighborhood. Over
the past three years, the Foundation has provided $1.6 million in
support of the program. Local grants administered by ACT are
focused on projects that improve affordable housing or contribute
to community improvement in underserved neighborhoods.
“The Home Depot Foundation has made an
enormous and inspiring impact on the entire
urban forestry profession. The Foundation really
understands the essential role of trees to improving
community health and vitality.”

Sawmill
C OMMUNIT Y L A ND T R U S T
In the 1990’s, the Sawmill Community Land Trust (SCLT) worked with the City of
Albuquerque, NM to acquire 27 acres of land in order to develop a community land
trust. The purpose of the land trust was — and still is — to build permanently affordable
homes and to create economic opportunity within a master-planned
infill development.
“Before, we did not have a
good place for our kids to play.
Now it’s like we have our own
backyard playspace!”
The project fully aligns with the Foundation’s
goals as it takes a comprehensive approach
to development considering both the long-term
affordability of the homes and the proximity to
safe and healthy outdoor spaces.
Over the last four years,
The Home Depot Foundation

Supported by a $1.5 million donation from The Home Depot Foundation,
New York City’s Parks Department and the nonprofit New York Restoration Project (NYRP)
launched Million Trees NYC to plant and care for one million trees throughout the five
boroughs of New York City over the next decade. The Foundation’s
funding will be used to bring the economic, social and environmental

families. Approximately 220,000 trees will be planted along streets
and an additional 280,000 trees will reforest the city’s parks.
$1.5
Million Granted
Over 3 Years
Through a mix of public and private plantings, Million Trees NYC
will expand New York City’s urban forest by 20 percent. All New
Yorkers will share in the many benefits that come from planting
trees: more beautiful neighborhoods and parks; cleaner air and water; higher property
values; energy savings; cooler summer streets, yards, and public open spaces; and
a healthier, more environmentally sustainable city. To ensure that the initiative has
broad impact beyond the tree plantings, program elements include community
outreach, public education,
tree maintenance and urban
forestry research.
The Million Trees NYC
campaign underscores the
importance of trees in urban
areas and the positive impact
they have on the health of
local communities.

“A quality of life is the most important
thing that a city can provide for its
residents. We came to understand very
early on that in order to have a high
quality of life…we had to get rid of the

local leaders enhance the social,
economic and overall well-being
of their cities. With a focus on the benefits of community trees, the partnership has
highlighted the urban forest as an essential part of any healthy, stable community.
Together with the Conference, the Foundation is improving the quality of life for
residents of America’s cities.
visionary award
In 2007, The Home Depot Foundation presented its inaugural
Visionary Award to Bart Harvey, former Chairman of Enterprise
Community Partners, for outstanding leadership in affordable
housing built responsibly.
Since the launch of the Green Communities Initiative in 2004,
under Harvey’s leadership Enterprise has transformed the way
the entire industry thinks about, designs and builds affordable
housing. He created a new vision and framework for sustainable
cities, healthy communities and efficient homes by building a
coalition of organizations to support the initiative.
Harvey’s influence extends far beyond the bricks and mortar of the homes—
his work has allowed thousands of families of modest means the opportunity to
create successful lives in healthy, efficient, environmentally smart affordable homes.

Supplier Advisory
Committee
“Without the support of the Company’s supplier/
vendor community, The Home Depot Foundation
would not be able to fully reach its mission of
building healthy, affordable housing and strong,
stable communities. Absolutely 100% of your
donations go to improve our communities.
Thanks to each of you for your partnership,
your financial generosity and your time spent
volunteering in your community; it really
makes a difference.”
In 2007, The Home Depot Foundation formed
a Supplier Advisory Committee as a way
to better connect with and strengthen the
relationship between the supplier/vendor
community that so generously supports
the Foundation and its mission.
