A simple system that really works

CanDo’s Napa Food Project is an innovative way to fight hunger in our communities. It involves the power of CanDo volunteers, one green bag at a time. Through this project, CanDo has greatly increased the amount of non-perishable food donated to the CANV Food Bank annually.

Our green bag project builds community by sharing food

✓ More Neighborhood Coordinators (NCs) = More Food Donors
✓ More Food Donors = More Green Bags
✓ More Green Bags = More Food For the Hungry

Those green bags add up!

Latest numbers:

February 10 Pickup: Napa 15,526 lbs of food collected 12,938 meals provided
February 10 Pickup: St Helena 271 lbs of food collected 226 meals provided
2024 total so far 15,797 lbs of food collected 13,164 meals provided
