Foundation Of The University Of The Valley Of Guatemala

The Foundation of the University of the Valley of Guatemala is a corporate tax-exempt non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov since 2010, with its primary address located in Princeton, New Jersey. As a federally recognized foundation, it specializes in supporting educational initiatives, particularly in Guatemala, through strategic grant awards from U.S. government agencies. The organization works closely with the Universidad Del Valle De Guatemala, a private university in Guatemala, to implement various educational development and infrastructure projects.

Through federal grant awards, primarily from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance, the foundation has consistently received project grants focused on educational commodities and infrastructure development. These grants, ranging from $1.1 million to $4 million, support the Foreign Assistance to American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA) program, which aims to enhance educational resources and facilities in institutions founded or sponsored by U.S. citizens. Specific grant activities include procuring and distributing educational commodities, conducting campus construction and renovation projects, and supporting educational infrastructure improvements. The foundation serves as both a prime grant recipient and a sub-award partner, with recent awards covering periods from 2020 to 2028, demonstrating a sustained commitment to educational development in Guatemala through collaborative federal grant programs.
