How and Why to Donate
Imagine a world where a child struggles to read, where seniors feel isolated due to technology challenges, and where families can’t afford learning opportunities. The Friends of the Napa Library (FOL) is dedicated to change this in Napa County. This holiday season, through the Give!Guide (November 15th to December 31st), our aim is to exceed our goal of reaching 120 donors and raising $10,000 to sustain essential library programs that foster literacy, learning, and community connection.
Your donation to the Friends of the Napa Library – CanDo’s Napa Valley Give!Guide) directly supports Napa County Library programs, including:
- Summer Reading Programs: Offering books, events, and learning activities to keep kids engaged and ready to learn when school resumes.
- The Memory Lab: Helping families digitize photos and videos, preserving cherished memories, and bridging the technology gap.
- Free Books for Kids and Families: Each year, we provide thousands of free books to children, bringing the joy of reading to those who can’t otherwise afford it.
- Community Outreach: We donate books to hospitals, senior housing, family centers, schools, and more, making literacy accessible to everyone.
Supporting FOL through the Give!Guide: fuels these programs and allows the library to continue as a place where all community members can find inspiration, learning, and belonging – every dollar and donor counts. Your contribution is an investment in the future of Napa – a future where everyone has access to knowledge, culture, and opportunity.
