THANK YOU!

February 7, 2022

“No one who achieves success does so without acknowledging the help of others” – Alfred North Whitehead.

A BIG THANK YOU to EVERYONE who donated to the FRIENDS of the NAPA LIBRARY from the 2021 CanDo Give!Guide!

Thank you for donating to the Friends of the Napa Library through the 2021 Give!Guide!
You have worked hard for the money that you donated to us. We appreciate it and are thankful. Words are fleeting, and we want you to know that a simple “thank you” doesn’t do justice to how deeply we appreciate your support. We are so glad to have you counted in our community of givers.

The Give!Guideprovides the Napa community to opportunity to become acquainted with the non-profit community and the ability to spread their donations among those who pique thier interest.

We are honored to be part of the G!G and hope to be included in this year’s edition coming up in December 2022.
