EVC Patch3R

The European Volunteers Corps (formerly the European Paratroopers - Operational Detachment) is a voluntary uniformed reserve unit dedicated to support the NATO and friendly countries in times of need. In May 2022, after the massive involvement in humanitarian assistance operations on the ground responding to the Ukraine crisis, the European Paratroopers - Operational Detachment (EPA-OD) was transformed and officially named the European Volunteers Corps (EVC).

The European Volunteers Corps strives to provide manpower and expertise to assist the governments and the military authorities in times of emergency. Its senior members have extensive operational experience in theatres of warfare ranging from the Balkans, Eastern Europe and Central Asia to the Middle East, Africa and Southeast Asia. Drawing on a lifetime of experience in conventional and special operations warfare. Its military background combines well with its present skills and experience, providing NATO and friendly countries with a very well-trained and disciplined body of men and women dedicated to serving the community when it comes to dealing with disaster relief and other emergencies whenever called upon to do so.

Help Us To Be Stronger!

The European Volunteers Corps (EVC) must be strengthened and enhanced. To achieve our aims we constantly need to raise money. We need to get equipment, training and vehicles vitally needed to deal with disaster relief and other emergencies, as well as we need to replenish medical supplies, food and other emergency supplies to be sent to "Hard Hit" areas. It's important to note that we are not a government body, and we do not have access to government funds. As we get no money from the governments to help us, and all our money comes from our members and private donations, we REALLY are counting on you. We depend on the donations of people like yourselves to sustain our operations. For this, we need your support! With your donation we can reach our goal!
