The UPAEP Foundation operates as a separate 501(c)(3), focused on raising, investing and distributing funds for UPAEP University. To protect donor information, Foundation services must be completely separate from the university. The Foundation’s operations are funded through growth in endowment, philanthropic gift allocations from private donations, and university support.
