Making Enabling Assistance Available
to People in Need
The Apex Foundation is the private, nonprofit foundation of Apex
CoVantage, headquartered in Herndon, Virginia, USA, with technology
campuses in India. The Foundation evaluates and awards grants annually
that range up to $50,000 (USD), with a focus on smaller organizations
that are led by individuals with a deep personal commitment to their
projects. At least 90% of grant monies is expected to directly reach
the beneficiaries. Administrators of the Apex Foundation conduct
site visits to grantee organizations to experience and evaluate
their activities periodically.
The goal of the Apex Foundation is to support intervention programs
that assist and inspire people to achieve self-sufficiency. The
Foundation makes grants to non-government organizations (NGO's)
providing social assistance to people challenged by poverty, disability,
or discrimination. The Foundation also supports relief agencies
that serve people affected by emergencies and natural disasters.
Qualifying grantee organizations are non-sectarian IRS 501(c)(3)
entities involved in social services consistent with the Foundation's
goals. Organizations not certified under IRS 501(c)(3) may also
qualify for Apex Foundation grants by submitting an affidavit (form
available on request). The qualifying process may include personal
interviews and site visits.
