Rolling out and CVS/pharmacy partnered to host the inaugural 2012 Mirror Mirror Beauty Awards in Atlanta to highlight 20 of the most prominent and recognized style makers in the beauty and entertainment industries. Honoree Melissa Brown is the manager of multicultural marketing who has the distinctive responsibility to develop and oversee the African American marketing strategy and manage components of the Hispanic marketing plan. In embracing all of Home Depot’s core values, those that Brown is most closely aligned with are “taking care of our communities, respect for all people and more importantly, giving back.”
She continues, “I give back in various ways, but I’m convinced that the most rewarding way is through mentoring and helping others. One of the philosophies that I live by is ‘Give without expecting to get anything in return.’ It’s simple — none of us got to where we are by ourselves, so pay it forward.”
