About The Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation :

A renowned entrepreneur and co-founder of The Home Depot, Arthur M. Blank is now recognized for his values-based Blank Family of Businesses (BFOB) and as one of America's leading philanthropists through the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation. All his industry-leading businesses, including the foundation, operate on six core values : Put People First, Listen and Respond, Include Everyone, Innovate Continuously, Lead by Example and Give Back to Others.

After over 25 years and over $1 billion in giving, the foundation has committed to significantly escalating the impact of its philanthropy over the next 10 years. This milestone coincides with deeper participation among the next generation of Blank family members on the board and in advisory capacities, partnering around their shared core beliefs, including the Jewish value of tikkun olam ("heal and repair the world") and seeking a fuller realization of American ideals.

The foundation works across various programmatic areas, including Youth Development, Democracy, Environment, Atlanta's Westside, and Mental Health and Well Being. The foundation also manages a large portfolio of founder-led initiatives, supporting the causes, institutions and relationships our founder holds dear. Geographically, much of the foundation's work prioritizes Georgia (with a focus on Atlanta) and Montana, while also considering the potential for greater national impact and influence.
