Making a positive contribution to society together
Exact Foundation
About the Foundation
At Exact, we feel a strong duty to give back to society. To really be able to make a difference, we have made this one of our strategic initiatives. Based on our intrinsic desire to do some good, we established the Exact Foundation in February 2019.
Through this Foundation, we offer equal opportunities for all by supporting unique learning and education initiatives. We help those in need to get ahead in life regardless of their origins, culture, religion, gender or sexual orientation.
To that end, we collaborate with organisations that share the same goal and offer them support, financially or by other means.
Mission
The Exact Foundation believes in equal opportunities for everyone. By supporting unique learning and education initiatives, we can help people in need to get ahead in life.
Objective
The Exact Foundation aims to make a positive contribution to society together. We feel that it is important to give back to the society in which we live and work. We strive for equal opportunities. By giving people access to education, we can help them to improve their opportunities in life, escape poverty and increase their self-esteem.
Projects we support
TechMeUp
TechMeUp believes education should be accessible to everyone, whatever their circumstances. That's why we work with our partners to create a more diverse and inclusive tech ecosystem each and every day. TechMeUp enables interest-free loans for students who would not be able to pay for their education otherwise. They repay these loans once they have found a job. In this way, students can maintain their lives and education as they study.
Jinc
All children are talented. That includes the hundreds of thousands of Dutch children growing up in surroundings with high unemployment and fewer role models. Jinc is fighting for a society where your future isn't decided by your origins. Where all children receive opportunities. To achieve this, we want to help children aged 8 to 16 get a good start on the labour market. Through the Jinc program, they are introduced to a wide variety of professions, can explore which work suits their talents and learn how to apply for jobs.
Codam
Codam prepares the next generation for the software jobs of today and tomorrow. We make excellent software engineer training accessible to the most extensive and diverse possible group of people aged 18 years and over. Students of highly varied backgrounds and all genders can find the right place for them at Codam.
ArmenTeKort
ArmenTeKort strives for a world without social disadvantages. We believe that by breaking the vicious cycle of generational poverty, we can create an inclusive community with equal opportunities for all to grow, thrive and fully belong. Preventing early school leaving can help end generational poverty.

Finances and activities
The Exact Foundation was officially established in February 2019. The focus in 2020 was on increasing the Foundation's brand awareness and on starting to pay out funds to suitable projects and charities. In 2021, we continued supporting the collaborations begun in 2020. We also worked on defining a long-term vision and goals that year. As a result, we decided to review our mission and several initiatives launched in 2021. Early 2022 was dedicated to optimising our mission in order to create more opportunities for us to achieve our ambitions. In the second half of 2022, we will be looking for new projects to support.
