It makes me happy that my work brings happiness and opportunities to those less fortunate from my community and enables them to succeedIn the future as the Chair of East London Community Foundation I hope to continue the work that we have started. Over the last 5 years we have funded grassroots groups across East London to the tune of over £3m. We are now largest funder in these boroughs and continue to strive to deliver more resources to grassroot groups to create opportunities for local communities which would not otherwise exist. My vision is to leave a lasting legacy so that our funding is permanent so we are building an endowment fund which will leave funds in perpetuity to generate benefit for communities in East London. We have raised over £500k this year and look to turn this into several million over the next few years. Me and my fellow trustees are volunteers
