Shannon Gerber

Shannon has led The Home Depot Foundation (THDF) in their continued quest to ensure every veteran has a safe place to call home. This year THDF marched closer to their current goal of giving a quarter of a billion dollars to Veterans housing organizations and projects by 2020 having already invested over $225 million since launching the effort in 2011. This year was marked by an incredible investment in disaster relief efforts after the devastating hurricanes across the U.S. south and Caribbean. As long time partners with Team Rubicon, THDF gave millions of dollars to TR and provided several thousands of associate volunteers to work in Texas, Puerto Rico and Florida to assist in the recovery of our communities alongside their Veteran partners.

The Home Depot supported the HillVets team with supplies and planning for their ten days of recovery efforts in Houston, Texas following Hurricane Harvey.
