On the Road against Food Insecurity

Thank you all who have donated time and resources as we help those in need of the multiple emergencies we have faced recently.

It has allowed us to provide the ongoing transport of increased volumes of food in our community, so it can go where the real need is!

The monetary donations help cover the variable costs (fuel, supplies, etc.) of transporting the fresh, perishable food safely and successfully to their final destinations- the agencies that serve those in need throughout Napa County.

Thanks to everyone for making our community safer & healthier!
