The 2019 CanDo’s Give!Guide Napa Valley is Here!

November 4, 2019

Click on this image to visit the entire CanDo Give!Guide website!

The Friends of the Napa Library is delighted to be participating in this year’s CanDo’s Give!Guide. We join 45 other remarkable local non-profits that were selected by Napa Valley CanDo to participate in this extraordinary vehicle for fund raising, community support and collaboration.

We are tasked primarily to raise funds to support both new and on-going library programs for both children and adults. To get a good look at what happens with the fruits of our labors and what programs we fund, please see Where The Money Goes. Our main sources of funding are memberships and book sales. In addition to our 10 day quarterly book sales of gently used books, CDs and DVDs, we also offer these items for sale year round in the lobby of the Napa City Library.

It takes many people, mainly volunteers, to make us successful. Volunteers serve in a wide range of capacities including sorting and cleaning books for the sales, organizing and staffing the quartely sales, community outreach and serving on our board.

A particularly important goal of Friends of the Library is to encourage young readers to become lifelong readers. As evidenced by the library programs we support, we believe that getting children to love books turns them into teens who love books which results in adult book lovers. And the cycle continues from generation to generation!

Please continue your visit to our site to familiarize yourself on who we are and what we do.

We encourage you to visit our page on CanDo’s Give!Guide website to show your support for our mission and the Napa residents we serve. Click here to be taken to our page at this incredible resource for giving.

BOOK DONATIONS

Did you know that ALL OF THE BOOKS, CDs, DVDs and RECORDED BOOKS come from donations? While some of the donations come from the library as they cycle media out of their inventory, most of the items we sell come from donations by the public. Without donations, we cannot fund various programs at the library.
