We are grateful to our sponsors, guests, and volunteers who joined together to raise more than $980,000 on Nov. 1, 2018 - shattering all previous records! Every dollar raised helps Eva's operate more than 20 integrated programs that serve thousands of men, women and children each year. Each year, our annual benefit gala raises awareness and vital funding for our life-saving and life-changing programs. Honorees, volunteers and a former client shared stories that moved us and warmed our hearts.
This year, we celebrated the anniversary of our Hope Residence, which has been providing hope and support for homeless and addicted mothers and their children for 10 years. "Hope through a Child's Eyes," a special exhibit of original artwork and quotes from children who live at Hope Residence, gave guests a glimpse into their creative process and everyday lives.
We honored Sandra Shahinian Leitner and St. Leon Armenian Church, Fair Lawn, for their generosity and dedication to Eva's mothers and children as well as the Department of Early Childhood and Teacher Education at Passaic County Community College for its partnership with our childcare staff.
The Hope Residence at Eva’s Village opened in 2008 to provide a safe haven and comfortable family environment for mothers struggling with homelessness and/or substance use disorders and their children. Our Hope Residence is one of the only residential programs in the state where mothers struggling with addiction can find a safe haven and a place to heal with their children. This unique program offers families the opportunity to work towards a brighter future - together.
