Home Depot helps Florence relief effort
ATLANTA – Atlanta-based Home Depot has stepped up to help with Florence recovery.
Hundreds of volunteers gathered at the company’s corporate office to put together nearly 2,400 cleanup kits for storm victims in North Carolina.
The kits include various cleaning supplies — everything from trash bags to scrub brushes to gloves — as well as notes of encouragement.
The Home Depot Foundation partnered with Hero Box and Convoy Of Hope to deliver the cleanup kits.
