White Oak Foundation, Inc.

White Oak Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit, minority-owned, Black American-owned foundation based in Apex, North Carolina, operates as a sub-recipient on federal grant programs focused on target hardening, with no direct federal contract prime activity and minimal federal grant prime experience. The organization has received nine federal awards since 2011, of which eight (89%) are grant sub-awards and one is a prime grant award, placing White Oak predominantly in a subgrant-delivery role rather than as a direct federal customer. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $422 thousand.

White Oak's customer footprint is highly concentrated with a single federal agency: the Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Housing Federal Housing Commissioner accounts for all tracked awards (11% coverage of the nine-award portfolio). Activity patterns show episodic engagement — one award in 2011, one in 2021, six in 2022, and one in 2023, with the most recent award dated September 1, 2023 (over two years ago). The grant work consistently targets target-hardening initiatives, the named scope across all eight sub-awards.

The organization's federal footprint reflects a grant recipient model rather than a contracting vehicle position. White Oak does not hold seats on government-wide acquisition contracts (GWACs), multiple-award schedules, or blanket purchase agreements and has not been awarded a federal contract vehicle. The vendor's engagement with the federal government flows through HUD housing and community development grant programs where it delivers on target-hardening work as a downstream subgrantee. No dollar ceilings, task-order counts, or vehicle-specific concentration data are present in the award record, consistent with the sub-recipient posture and the small combined obligated value. Given the recency gap (no awards since September 2023) and the historically sparse annual activity, current federal engagement status remains unclear from the source data.
