About National INDIA HUB
​Founded and led by Harish Kolasani, the National India Hub emerged as a major community-service center, uniting dozens of Indian-American service organizations and providing cultural, educational, health and wellness programs for diaspora communities in the U.S. and India.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Hub and its network accessed global resources—supplying ventilators, oxygen concentrators, PPE, plasma donor databases and lodging support—while enabling cross-border collaboration to support Indian Americans and communities in India.
The Hub’s physical campus in Schaumburg, Illinois was inaugurated as a landmark, housing more than 60 service organizations under one roof and offering space for job fairs, health camps, CPR training, and community networking, thus creating a unique model of cultural and social impact.

106 life-saving ventilators

Hundreds of oxygen concentrators
