In 2025, the East Lake Foundation celebrated our 30-year anniversary. That is three decades of dedication, innovation and unwavering belief in the power of community.
Working in collaboration with the residents of The Villages of East Lake and students and families of Charles R. Drew Charter School, we use a holistic approach including cradle-to-college and career education, mixed-income housing, community wellness and economic vitality to ensure that every East Lake resident has access to the resources, tools and supports they need to thrive.

We are proud to illuminate the legacy of work already accomplished in East Lake and look forward to continuing to move purposefully to address the challenges of today, make a positive impact, and create solutions for tomorrow. We are excited to embark on this next chapter with you.
