Who We Are
Corvias [kor-vee-us] cor meaning heart and via by way of
John G. Picerne, Founder, established Corvias to reflect our
commitment to serving by way of the heart, since it represents
the driving force behind everything that we do. At the heart of our
organization is our mission to improve lives.
We are one company, with one mission: Living Made Better速. We work
on behalf of the U.S. military, colleges and universities and public sector
agencies to deliver tailored solutions that remedy some of Americas
most challenging deficiencies in infrastructure and facilities caused by
budgetary constraints and chronic underinvestment.
Since 2001, we have developed 26 concurrent partnerships, offering
each partner an investment of time, personnel, and resources to develop
the best solution for that program. We pursue alliances where our
unique, but proven partnership model, dramatically improves quality
of life, while simultaneously improving the financial strength and
infrastructure for our partner.
During the early
stages of the Armys
public-private military
housing program, I
told those in charge
of selecting private
firms to participate
in the program that
they should look into
the heart of the firms
CEOs, so they could
make sure they were
going to get the kind
of partners needed for
this important housing
initiative. In John
Picerne, we all saw
someone with exactly
the kind of heart we
wanted on our team.

- 3. 3 Core Principles To materially improve the lives of the people our projects touch has always been the essence of our mission: Living, Made Better速. All Corvias companies are governed by three unshakeable core principles: To be the best provider of services. To be the best place to work. To generously give back to the communities in which we serve.
- 4. 4 G GT W Making Today a Better Tomorrow Founded in 2006 as the charitable arm of Corvias Group, Corvias Foundation works to increase access to educational, internship, mentoring, and volunteering opportunities so that those who are touched are empowered to pursue their dreams and to make a greater impact in service of their communities and their nation. Funding Education We see first-hand the exciting potential of the next generation of leaders, and of the colleges and universities that shape them. Corvias Foundation focuses on direct educational support to students who are striving to reach higher. Corvias Foundation helps individuals exceed their personal, educational and professional development goals through significant scholarships and grants, internships, academic support, and access to mentors. Our scholarships are uniquely empowering for college-bound students because they provide reliable, recurring financial assistance over their four years of study, as well as a support network that is committed to their academic and professional growth. Giving Back Corvias Foundation works with a wide variety of partners, including students, charitable organizations, employees, military installations, colleges and universities, and many more, to perform strategic philanthropic outreach. Corvias Foundation also creates customized, impactful volunteer experiences in the communities and campuses where we live and serve. Through giving back days, organized outreach projects, donation matching, and national campaigns, Corvias Foundation encourages and empowers individuals to find ways to identify and impact deserving people and organizations across the country. Creating Connections Our partners, donors, mentors, and all scholarship and educational grant recipients become members of the Corvias Foundation family devoted to mutual support, encouragement, and inspiration. Foundation staff works closely with our scholars to ensure success in academic and professional development, and to foster an enduring aspiration towards self- and community-improvement. Corvias Foundation works together with students, colleges and universities, military families and our employees to empower individuals to reach higher and contribute to communities in a more meaningful way. By working together and utilizing the connections that we make through the Foundation, the Corvias Foundation family is a network dedicated to reaching higher in personal, professional, and philanthropic endeavors.
