I read that the co-founder of Home Depot, Arthur M. Blank, is giving back in a huge way. He is donating $50 million to help HBCU students cross the finish line and earn their degrees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also possible that after founding Home Depot he was no longer in charge when they decided to support Trump’s plans…. Nothing is simple and I am still looking for ways to make my displeasure felt in some meaningful way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I will continue to boycott Home Depot, and that has the added benefit of supporting my local hardware stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In communicating with friends lately, it seems that a lot of people are not anxious to sign petitions. I was hoping together tons of signatures and share our group discontent with the companies mentioned in my Saturday post<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We only have strength in numbers but I can understand if people do not want to go on record publicly. I do encourage people to use to use the power of their pocketbook, whether they make it known or not. Meanwhile I continue to look for ways to share information and rally the troops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I read that the co-founder of Home Depot, Arthur M.
