24 Days of Giving!

As the holidays draw near, we invite you to join us for North Valley Food Bank’s 24 Days of Giving, a special campaign running through December 24th. Every day, we spotlight a specific need — including food items, donations, and acts of kindness — to build food security in our neighborhoods this season. Check out the 24 Days of Giving overview and mark your calendars for the days and acts of giving that speak to you! The holidays can be a time of joy and connection, but for many of our neighbors, they are filled with uncertainty. Your generosity has the power to change that. This December, let’s create stories of hope and resilience. Whether you donate a can of soup, a box of pasta, or make a financial contribution, every act of generosity makes a difference.
