Napa Valley has a CanDo attitude.

Napa Valley CanDo believes in the power of many small actions to make a really big difference. We connect, inspire and empower Napa Valley residents like you by making it easy to stay informed and work together to create a strong, caring, inclusive community.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.

— Margaret Mead

You can volunteer for one of our dynamic projects, even for just an hour or two, or help one of the many local organizations we support. Each individual action connects to others. Together, we‘re making our Valley and world better.

Neighborhood Coordinators (NCs) are the very foundation of the Napa Food Project. The NC job is easy as 1-2-3:
1. They sign up their neighbors or workplace colleagues to be food donors, and give each one a special green bag.
2. NCs pick up the filled green bags every other month (February, April, June, August, October, December); 
3. They bring the bags to the Food Bank, where other volunteers unload them from your vehicle. You don't even need to get out!

In between they keep their Food Donors informed and reminded of the next pick-up day. It's very straightforward and easy!

We really need more NCs in our community. Interested? Attend our next NC orientation on March 19 @ 5:00 PM for new coordinators.  It lasts for one hour and we give you all the background on the program as well as supplies, and provide step by step instructions as an NC. 

To get started, send us an email at NapaFoodProject@nvcando.org.
