Bayou District Foundation is a brand dedicated to holistic community revitalization and breaking the cycle of poverty in New Orleans and other cities. Their mission is to provide quality education, affordable housing, healthcare, fresh groceries, and community programming for under-served children and families. They offer comprehensive community education, addressing the literacy crisis for children in poverty.

They have also completed 685 mixed-income rental units and developed 6 affordable single-family homes. The Bayou District community includes a federal qualified health clinic, and they are working on building a grocery and drug store near the community garden and senior housing. Bayou Oaks Golf, an 18-hole championship course, supports their mission through its net operating revenues.

Through the redevelopment of the former St. Bernard Public Housing Development, they provide affordable workforce housing and educational resources such as Educare New Orleans and KIPP Believe Charter School. With a variety of funding sources, they aim for a $375 million asset value in the community.

Bayou District Foundation is committed to reshaping lives and building a model community for similar revitalization efforts across the country
