Eva's Village (http://www.EvasVillage.org), a comprehensive New Jersey anti-poverty charity, is experiencing an increase in need in 2009, and a decline in foundation grants and individual gifts -- Eva's Village, Paterson, New Jersey, seeks additional funding to meet the increasing need.

Paterson, NJ (PRWEB) May 27, 2009 -- Eva's Village describes an increase in their NJ anti-poverty programs and a decline in foundation grants and gifts from direct-mail appeals as "disturbing", and is actively seeking support for their New Jersey anti-poverty programs during the current economic recession.

It's not a surprise that the need for anti-poverty programs in New Jersey is growing during the current New Jersey economic crises. But the increasing need is becoming disturbing indeed. In 2008, Eva's Village served 120,777 hot, nutritious lunches, an increase of 7.3% over the same time period in 2007. More recently, over 400 people were served in one day where previously, the need averaged 260. Eva's Village Free Medical and Dental Care Clinic in New Jersey is also noticing an increase in those seeking medical and dental care at its free clinic.
