About ELBA
ELBA is a leading social regeneration charity in east London. Our mission is to develop employee volunteering and employment initiatives to decrease poverty, improve social mobility and increase equality for communities in east London and beyond. We facilitate corporate support from over 100 organisations into our community, education and employment programmes.
With over 35 years of experience enabling successful partnerships between businesses and communities, ELBA engages over 16,000 corporate employees in volunteer programmes annually
that support employment, education and community initiatives. In 2024 the Community Works programme supported over 250 charities and social enterprises through engaging employee volunteers in practical and skills-based volunteering opportunities.

About Evolve

Evolve is a Business Charity Awards nominated collaboration between three longstanding corporate partners, a corporate foundation and ELBA. With a focus on Hackney, Tower Hamlets and Haringey, we address the barriers and challenges faced by community organisations. We do this by developing organisational capacity, especially with leadership, for those who are tackling the complex needs presented by the cost-of-living crisis.
