Our WorkWe provide critical extra programs to schools
Our Impact
We believe NVUSD provides an excellent education for students in our community. Every day, we support their work by providing critical extra programs students need to perform their best. We want all our students to graduate from high school ready for college or a successful career.
Napa Valley Education Foundation mobilizes community resources and provides leadership to inspire children to achieve their educational potential by enhancing the priorities of the Napa Valley Unified School District. We do this by providing programs, raising funds, and uniting the community in support of educational excellence.
Each year, we raise nearly $500,000 to fund critical gaps in public funding for education. We believe an investment in education is an investment in our future!

In August, 2014, the Foundation jumped to respond to the immediate needs of NVUSD teachers by collecting community donations and distributing earthquake grants to teachers within two weeks of the disaster. The Foundation distributed more than $20,000 in grants directly to classrooms to replace school supplies and classroom equipment damaged by the earthquake.
