ATLANTA, Dec. 28, 2021 / PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE / – The Home Depot® enhanced its military discount benefit to include all veterans, active-duty service members, and spouses in the United States every day, reaffirming commitment of the company serving the United States military community across the country.
United States veterans, active-duty service members and their spouses who pre-register for the benefit through The Home Depot app will receive a 10 percent discount on their in-store and online purchases. Registration through the customer app not only extends the discount to online purchases beyond the aisles of the stores, but also makes it easier for customers to complete the payment more quickly and easily with the benefit of the discount.
“We are proud to expand this military discount benefit for families who have sacrificed so much for our country,” said Ted Decker, president and chief operating officer of The Home Depot. “From our product discount to The Home Depot Foundation’s commitment to veterans’ causes, our dedication to our military and women is stronger than ever.”
This new military discount benefit is just one way The Home Depot supports the military. Since 2011, The Home Depot Foundation has invested more than $ 400 million in causes for veterans and improved more than 50,000 homes and facilities for them. The Foundation pledged to invest $ 500 million by 2025 for veterans’ causes.
This year, the Foundation commemorated 10 years of partnership and impact on veterans’ issues with organizations such as Habitat for Humanity, Volunteers of America, Operation Homefront, Semper Fi & America’s Fund, and U.S. VETS, among others.
With more than 35,000 associates who are veterans and spouses of military veterans, The Home Depot’s support of the military also extends to its workforce. This year, the company was recognized as a 2022 Military Friendly® Company for the 19th consecutive year.
