EAST FLATBUSH VILLAGE INC

What EAST FLATBUSH VILLAGE INC does

East Flatbush Village Inc. is a 501(c)(3) grassroots nonprofit organization founded in 2008 and headquartered at 1011 Utica Avenue in Brooklyn, New York. The organization serves low-income and underserved residents of the East Flatbush and, more recently, Canarsie neighborhoods of Brooklyn through a portfolio of community programs: youth and adult athletics, community and civic engagement, health and wellness, school-based programming, crisis management systems, and the E.N.O.U.G.H. (Educating Neighbors and Organizing the Underserved with Grassroots and Health-enrichment) violence prevention initiative. Since 2020, the organization reports distributing 98,879 lbs of food and over 5,100 resource giveaways, and sustains an Annual Awards Gala now in its 17th year. There is no proprietary software or technology platform underlying the service; 'core technology' is operational, consisting of in-person program delivery at community sites, schools, and partner locations.

The business model is donation-driven. Revenue is sourced from charitable contributions by individuals, foundations, and community supporters, solicited through an online donation portal with preset tiers of $50, $100, $500, and $1,000 alongside custom amounts. The organization reports 21 employees and operates two physical sites: the Utica Avenue headquarters and a second office at 770 East 80th Street in Canarsie opened in June 2025 for the E.N.O.U.G.H. initiative. No audited revenue, major grants, or commercial pricing are disclosed.

East Flatbush Village pursues its mission through a dense coalition of partners, including NYC Public Schools (P.S. 135), NYS Assemblywoman Monique Chandler-Waterman, the NYS AD|58 Task Force, LINKNYC, Sigma Gamma Rho, and IAMWONDAWOMAN. Programs are delivered directly in the community through workshops, school-based curricula, athletic programming, and community give-back events such as 'Blessings Don't Stop.' Marketing and constituent engagement are handled through organic social channels (Facebook, X/Twitter, Instagram) and the organization's website, with no paid acquisition or enterprise sales motion evident.
