Donating Food and Personal Care Items
Special Needs during the COVID-19 Outbreak
We are taking pro-active steps to protect the health and safety of all members of our community. We will continue to update this list in the event that our needs change. Every day brings new challenges, but we are deeply committed to continuing our care and services for those who need us most. As it becomes clear that the pandemic is likely to affect us all for months to come, your generosity has never been so impactful. The services offered at Eva’s Village - food, shelter, addiction treatment and recovery support - are especially crucial at this time, and your charitable partnership helps to ensure that our residents and vulnerable members of our community receive the help they desperately need to survive.

Eva's Village serves over 500,000 meals through our Community Kitchen each year, and provides residential care for over 300 men, women, and children in our Emergency Shelters and treatment programs. We welcome specific donated items to support our efforts, and we encourage you to organize donation drives with your company, your church, your community group or your family and friends!
