We match the donations to chosen charities up to $5,000 each quarter.
Our founder, Dick Schulze, thinks the Power of 100 – Women Who Care organization structure
is a unique way to partner with local philanthropists. These partnerships can provide one more way to give back to the many communities that made Best Buy the world’s #1 electronics retailer.
