About the company
Seva Foundation, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Berkeley, California, with operational offices in Nepal, acts as a federal grant sub-recipient on health research programs funded by the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, delivering on-ground implementation and logistical support for clinical studies in Nepal.
Seva Foundation operates entirely as a sub-recipient (60% of recent awards), with no prime federal contracts or IDVs in the source data. The foundation's federal footprint is concentrated within the Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Eye Institute and the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute at the NIH, plus the CDC's Office of Acquisition Services. Two awards are associated with the National Eye Institute, one with the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, and one with the CDC, accounting for 80% of recent federal awards and 50% of combined potential value.
Seva's work centers on implementing clinical eye health research in Nepal. The most recent sub-award, dated July 3, 2025, is a sub-grant from The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco under what the source identifies as a study involving Bharatpur Eye Hospital in Chitwan, Nepal. Under this arrangement, Seva Foundation maintains ethical approvals with the Nepali Health Research Council, coordinates local health office and political approvals, manages logistical support including customs and equipment transport, assists with screening and examination activities, oversees data entry coordination at the hospital site, and supports study interventions and referral protocols in collaboration with UCSF's Proctor Foundation Clinical and Data Coordinating Centers. Dr. Binita Sharma serves as a consortium principal investigator and oversees Seva's Nepal-based team. The foundation has continued this sub-award relationship through prior-year continuation awards dated September 10, 2024 and December 8, 2023, indicating a multi-year research partnership.
The activity profile is sparse: five total federal awards across the source data window, with only one award per year recorded in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Combined potential value across all awards is $100 thousand, though combined dollars obligated ($710 thousand) exceeds potential value, reflecting obligation history across prior award years. Seva carries no independent federal contracting capacity and does not sit on GWACs, BPAs, or agency IDVs.
