Why Partner with us?

Higher education, over time, has become the major focus of Native success and cultural preservation. For 35 years, the American Indian College Fund is the largest Native-serving, Native-led organization in the United States. We are a trusted leader in Native communities, and your support has a big impact:

  • We have granted 182,000 scholarships to Native students since 1989.
  • We have invested $208 million in scholarship support.
  • In the 2024-25 school year, we served a total of 6,900 unique scholars, including 2,455 first-year students and 359 graduate students.

About our Eatss Event

As a sponsoring partner of the American Indian College Fund, you will be recognized year-long at our EATSS events and throughout Native American Heritage Month (NAHM) which is nationally recognized in November. When you join us on our journey, you are helping build a more inclusive world where Native voices are heard, and others are encouraged to celebrate our Native communities!

Event sponsorship makes a difference!

Education IS the answer. In addition to our renowned student success programming, the American Indian College Fund (College Fund) increases public awareness and changes perceptions of American Indians and Alaska Natives with the goal of advancing Native education and promoting cultural revitalization. Through positive, inclusive and celebratory experiences, College Fund events, in a very real and accessible way, change the narrative around Indigenous peoples and address socio-economic inequities affecting Indian Country. As a sponsor of College Fund events, you will elevate Native voices, increase Native visibility, and reinforce the power of education to build and transform communities.
