From landscaping and renovating dorms to repaving athletic courts, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) around the country are using Retool Your School grant money to improve student life.
This year, The Home Depot’s Retool Your School (RYS) program granted 36 HBCUs with more than $2 million to enhance their campuses. Camille Tucker shares how they’re making Howard University more sustainable, and Braylin Laster discusses the substantial impact the RYS grants are having at Lane College.
