Throughout his career, Dr. Reddy has been committed to serving the communities in which he works. In 1989, he established the Dr. Prem Reddy Family Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charitable organization with an initial gift of $1 million. Since that time, he has contributed over $20 million dollars to the Foundation. The Dr. Prem Reddy Family Foundation serves the health care needs of the High Desert communities in many ways, including a free public health library, a scholarship program for students in the health care field, and the support of other health care related charities.

Dr. Reddy is an active philanthropist, contributing to numerous charitable causes. He greatly values education and has donated extensively to providing opportunity for education within the health care field.
