Welcome to Hoboken Volunteers

Hoboken Volunteers was founded to provide an online clearinghouse where local community activists can connect with organizations, foundations, and groups who require the assistance of volunteers. Our mission is to strengthen our community by making it easier for members of Hoboken’s community to donate their valuable time to worthwhile organizations.

Hoboken Volunteers would like to thank all those who attended our first fundraiser – Chili Cook-Off for a Cause on Saturday February 27th at the Shannon.

The event was an outstanding success where HV raised approximately $2900 with a portion of the proceeds donated to the American Red Cross’s relief efforts in Haiti. It was a fun filled afternoon of chili eating and socializing. The event was MC’d by Ryan Orabone, Marketing Director for Hoboken Volunteers.

Hoboken Volunteers would like to thank the judges, Jennifer Iserloh, Martha Slutzky, and Ryan Yacco.
