About the company
American Indian Center, a Chicago-based nonprofit organization (tax-exempt), operates as a recipient of federal grants rather than a federal contractor; the organization holds 26 prime federal grants (96% of recent awards) and one sub-grant award across a diverse portfolio of federal grantors, with combined potential value of $7.3 million obligated against combined dollars of $9 million over the past several years.
American Indian Center's grant work centers on Native American community health, food sovereignty, cultural programs, and social services delivered in the Chicago area. Representative prime grants include a project grant from the National Endowment for the Arts supporting the annual Chicago Powwow (award date January 2025, completing December 2025) and a project grant from the Administration for Native Americans for the Food Is Medicine: Urban Native Food Sovereignty Project (award date September 2022, completing September 2025). The organization also holds sub-grant award activity: American Indian Center received a Tier 3 Competitive Grant Application sub-award from the Minneapolis Foundation in April 2025.
Customer concentration sits with cultural and health-focused federal agencies. The top four funding agencies, which account for 81% of recent awards, are the National Endowment for the Arts (7 awards), the Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Service (7 awards), the National Science Foundation (5 awards), and the Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 (2 awards, $700 combined potential value). Award activity has been sparse and episodic — one award per year in 2018, 2019, and 2020, then resuming in 2022 and 2025 — reflecting the grant-based funding model typical of nonprofit community organizations. The organization's award portfolio spans primary NAICS codes in ambulatory health care services and similar organizations, with PSC framing weighted toward medical-managed healthcare and professional support services. American Indian Center does not hold contract vehicles or compete for federal contracts; all federal funding flows through competitive grant programs.
