 Important Message to our Volunteers during the COVID-19 Outbreak
To protect the health and safety of our community during the pandemic, have had to change the way some of our programs operate  and cannot offer as many opportunities to volunteer - We have transitioned our Community Kitchen  from sit-down dining to To-Go meals; we have temporarily suspended our Workforce Development program; and we have had to reduce the number of in-person fundraising events. 

Currently, we have limited openings for Community Kitchen volunteers . We will supply masks, gloves, hair nets, and aprons and feed you lunch. Please email our volunteer coordinator if you can help:  angela.vance@evasvillage.org
Willing hands and hearts.
An essential ingredient in the success of Eva's Village has always been our many dedicated volunteers. Becoming a volunteer starts with the simple desire to give for the sake of giving, then turning that desire into action by reaching out to get involved. At Eva's Village, volunteers support our mission everyday by sharing their time and talents in our Community Kitchen, mentoring clients in our Workforce Development Program, providing professional services in our Medical & Dental Clinic to our shelter and recovery program clients, and leading programs and classes at our Recovery Community Center.

We welcomed back a limited number of volunteers  in mid-June to help us prepare weekday To Go meals.
New Jersey First Lady Tammy Murphy and Paterson Mayor André Sayegh helped assemble To-Go meals this Spring.
Please contact our volunteer coordinator who will explain how to join the virtual session via email  angela.vance@evasvillage.org or call (973) 825-7215.
