The SEP Foundation: Focused on What Matters

We’ve been blessed to be a successful tech company for over 30 years. In that time we’ve learned that people and community have been the most important pieces to our success. We’ve created The SEP Foundation because we admire and have compassion for the resiliency of those who have experienced hardships and we believe it’s our duty to support our neighbors who deserve the same opportunities.

Our Mission

We believe everyone in our community should have the opportunity to overcome the barriers and confines of poverty. We use our time, talents, and financial resources to help veterans and families experiencing hardships to achieve self-sufficiency.

About Horizon House

The Last Mile

The Last Mile was founded at San Quentin State Prison to address the societal impact of incarceration as a drain on human and fiscal resources. The program provides computer coding training to prepare its students for release into today’s high-tech environment. Their core belief is that having a job is the key to successful re-entry and breaking the cycle of incarceration.

Maker Scholarship

The SEP Foundation Maker Scholarship

Our dream of having a scholarship fund to support underrepresented groups pursuing further education in STEAM became a reality in 2020 with The SEP Foundation Maker Scholarship.

Open to any Central Indiana resident, the scholarship was established to help students pursue a degree in a STEAM field at any accredited college, university, technical, vocational, or trade school in Indiana.
