The Hispanic Outreach Leadership Association of the Lakeway Area (“H.O.L.A. Lakeway” or “the organization”) was created by the Latino Task Force of Morristown, the Latino Task Force of Knoxville and the Community Economic Development Network of East Tennessee in 2014. In 2018 the organization began to see a growth in the community of families from India, Micronesia, Pakistan, etc. The board decided to expand our efforts to all immigrants in the community. The board expanded the mission statement and changed the name of the organization to HOLA Lakeway with no acronym. HOLA Lakeway was granted 501c3 status in May 2019.

​

We are a grassroots, community-based organization with the mission of meeting needs and improving the overall quality of life for the immigrant population in East Tennessee’s Lakeway region, a six-county area.

Our passion for education and advocacy inspires our work. Not only do we offer various educational programs, but we are also actively involved in a variety of grassroots projects. We take pride in our commitment to our entire community.
