Volunteers

All of the residents of Jacob’s Village express so much gratitude for volunteers that assist in providing life in their home. Without you, volunteers, there would be no transport to the pleasant side of life in the greater Evansville area such as: for Ann, providing once a month spiritual activities for the residents with musicians, Atlas, for providing a fitness program once a week, for Ron who is teaching Tai Chi to us when possible, Jim & Barbara for providing Mike and Wanda trips to and from Church, Sandy for preparing a Spaghetti Squash meal for the residents, for Sherry who spent her time with us once a week, USI students for including the residents in their ‘Best Buddy’ program, a few Mater Dei High School students for providing a pen-pal type of relationship with the residents and on occasion different types of music in the homes, two Reitz High School students for planning and organizing the Jacob’s Village Christmas party, Pastoral visits, once a month from the courtesy of local Church members and leaders, and the WestWood General Baptist Church’s Youth Ministry for cleaning the windows in all the homes. There are many kind deeds blessing Jacob’s Village. Apologies are necessary for any and all that are overlooked at this time. This is only a short list of the many examples of what volunteers do. Jacob’s Village has offerings as well, and the residents always look forward to having volunteers start at their home base, inside or out. We welcome everyone to visit Jacob’s Village, see what has taken place; see what will take place and witness the transformation of a dream of possibilities to a reality of opportunities.
