Best In Class
Best in Class
Best In Class nominees are chosen by the APS Board of Directors Disbursement Committee based on their program's impact and growth since receiving Foundation funding. The Committee considers programs that have the ability to grow further to widen and deepen their impact with Best In Class funding.
The final decision is up to the community. The Foundation asked community members to visit our website, learn more about the nominated programs and to vote for a Best In Class winner.
The 2023 Best In Class winners will receive grant funding from Foundation donors to expand their programming.
