Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To increase the number of Indigenous Computer Science students and instructors in the fields of Data Science, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and beyond by providing access to learning opportunities, tools, resources, mentorship, and support. IndigiGenius is an Indigenous-led, community focused nonprofit developing a sustainable and scalable system of creating leaders and changemakers in the fields of Computer Science. Our organizational goal of reaching population parity with CS PhD graduate rates by graduating thirty-five Indigenous CS PhD students per year. To accomplish this goal, IndigiGenius developed a series of programs that educate students and teachers to create earlier CS opportunities at the high school level.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Mission : We are Indigenous futurists dedicated to empowering communities through culturally-centered mentorship, education, research, and career development. By advancing Indigenous knowledge and sovereignty in AI, computer science, and transformational technologies, we aim to inspire future leaders and drive innovation that benefits Indigenous peoples. Our Vision : We envision an ecosystem of Indigenous excellence in AI, computer science, and advanced technology, guided by culturally informed research, education, and community-driven programs. As a North Star, our initiatives empower youth, educators, and communities to reclaim knowledge, innovate, and lead in fields shaping our future.

  • Lakota AI Code Camp Program aims to inspire students to pursue pathways into higher education and careers in advanced technology fields. LAICC is a three-week long summer program for high school students where they gain hands-on experience developing personalized mobile apps using industry standard software engineering practices, computer science, deep learning, and extended reality incorporating Indigenous knowledge and methods. By inspiring the students to pursue their future in advanced technology and connecting them with professional networks, the LAICC fulfills the Strategic Focus Areas of Higher Education and Career Readiness while also laying the foundations for all three aspects of Workforce Development: Early Career Exposure, Diverse Pathways to Employment, and Bridging Transitions between Higher Education and Careers. Laying the foundations for Academic Success the LAICC provides future Indigenous AI researchers, practitioners, and professionals with a community of Indigenous peers, mentors, and technical experts to support and uplift them as they continue learning and developing their programming and AI skills after the camp.

    Expenses $248,432

  • Indigenous in AI/ML's vision is to build an international community of Native, Aboriginal, and First Nations who will collectively transform their home communities with advanced technology. By elevating the voices of Indigenous ML researchers we will inspire future impactful work and break stereotypes. Additionally, this group will strive to educate the broader NeurIPS on contemporary indigenous issues relevant to information technology and practices.

    Expenses $9,395

  • Teach the Teacher Professional Development (T3PD) offers AI Education to Indigenous communities, who have historically been underserved, by recruiting, training, and supporting future instructors to implement an AI Code Camp in their home community.

    Expenses $558,487

  • The FLAIR initiative serves Indigenous communities in their efforts to revitalize their language and culture through technology. We are building the foundations for Indigenous Voice AI in systems explicitly designed to respect data sovereignty and linguistic self-determination. Our foundational automatic speech recognition (ASR) research aims to develop a method for the rapid creation of custom models for endangered languages. These models can be used for language learning, audio transcription, voice-controlled technology and much more. We envision a world in which Indigenous communities have full self-determination and sovereignty over their language and culture. We imagine technology serving the revitalization and thriving of languages as a tool to connect community members, to celebrate their identity, and to transmit their culture and knowledge on the community's own terms.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
