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:

Napa October 12 Pickup 11,611 lbs of food collected 9,676 meals provided
St Helena October 12 Pickup 275 lbs of food collected 229 meals provided
2024 total so far 65,078 lbs of food collected 54,231 meals provided
