Donation Requests

[ Edited ]

Best Buy takes great pride community involvement.  While we especially focus on supporting and providing opportunities for teens through our @15 program, we also empower our store teams to evaluate any donations requests that might come from the communities in which they operate. 

For an organization to be eligible to apply for a donation, they must be a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit or a public agency, within 50 miles of the local Best Buy store, and somehow serve children in grades K-12.  Some example categories of requests that might be considered would be:

  • Schools
  • Libraries
  • After-school programs
  • Educational programs for K-12 students

What we do not fund:

  • Individuals
  • Endowments
  • Fraternal organizations or social clubs
  • Units of government or quasi-governmental agencies 
  • Labor organizations or political campaigns
  • Organizations designed primarily for lobbying
  • For-profit organizations or travel programs
  • Sole support of operating or advertising expenses
  • Religious organizations for religious purposes
  • Health, medical, or therapeutic programs or living subsidies
