CIC Foundation

The mission of the CIC Foundation is to support the objectives of CIC. It is anticipated that for its first three years (2003-2005), Foundation resources will be directed exclusively toward the APEX initiative. In future years, CMP and Hall of Leaders will be supported as well.

While concentrating on the APEX initiative, the Foundation plans to focus on completing the APEX fundraising campaign and determining means for APEX to earn funds and become self-sufficient. It will also be charged with promoting APEX by communicating the value of the initiative, as well as general awareness, to the industry.
