My Cause

The Mission: The ASIS Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, supports security management professionals worldwide through research and education. Governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees, the Foundation is supported by generous donations from individuals, organizations, and ASIS chapters and communities.

About the Organization: The ASIS Foundation is your foundation. Since 1966 we have been proud to provide practical research, grants and scholarships to support security management professionals in advancing their careers. In this past year alone, the Foundation has:

• Supported 12 ASIS chapters in hosting their own certification preparation classes through our Chapter Starter Kit Grants.
• Awarded 30+ Certification Scholarships to directly support members pursuing professional ASIS certification.
• Released new research on 'Autonomous Vehicles: Threats, Risks, and Opportunities'

“The ASIS Foundation Law Enforcement Liaison Community (LELC) Certification Scholarship offers an incredible opportunity for members of the law enforcement community. By covering the costs of an associated study course and certification exam fees, this scholarship ensures that dedicated members of the LE community can pursue an ASIS certification without the worry of financial strain. This wonderful gesture of appreciation acknowledges our community’s hard work and commitment to public safety and further motivates candidates in their certification endeavors. As a scholarship recipient, I personally felt valued and supported, knowing that ASIS recognized my service. Most importantly, I was humbled in their willingness to invests in my professional growth.”
