AMB Group Jobs (2)

A renowned entrepreneur and co-founder of The Home Depot, Arthur M. Blank is now recognized for his values-based Blank Family of Businesses (BFOB) and as one of America’s leading philanthropists through the Arthur M.

Blank Family Foundation. Each of his industry-leading businesses and the Blank Family Foundation operate on six core values : Put People First, Listen and Respond, Include Everyone, Innovate Continuously, Lead by Example, and Give Back to Others.

After 25 years and more than $1 billion in giving as of April 2023, the Blank Family Foundation has committed to significantly escalating the impact of its philanthropy over the next 10+ years.

This milestone coincides with deeper participation among the next generation of Blank family members on the board and in advisory capacities, partnering around their shared core beliefs, including the Jewish value of tikkun olam ( heal and repair the world ), and seeking a fuller realization of American ideals.

The foundation works across several different programmatic areas, including Youth Development, Democracy, Environment, Atlanta’s Westside, and Mental Health & Well-Being.

The foundation also manages a large portfolio of founder-led initiatives and associate-led giving committees that operate across the BFOB.

Geographically, much of the foundation’s work prioritizes Georgia (with a focus on Atlanta) and Montana, while also considering the potential for greater national impact and influence.

To complement and amplify the impact of these giving areas, the foundation has three central functions whose teams partner with programmatic colleagues.

These functions include Finance & Grants Management, Communications and Effective Philanthropy.
