Junior League of Napa-Sonoma - In the Community
The Junior League of Napa-Sonoma develops projects after careful consideration and research of an unmet community need that falls within the emphasis on positively impacting the lives of children and families. Each project provides initial and ongoing training to the members as well as high-quality service to its clients. Projects, usually in collaboration with another community group, receive two kinds of League support: - A core of volunteers
- Financial assistance
After working collaboratively with local nonprofit organizations to achieve specific goals and objectives, a League project is then turned over to the community agency or group best suited to maintain it. The Junior League of Napa-Sonoma is currently involved with six community projects. Over $175,000 has been distributed to projects in Napa and Sonoma counties. | News | | We update this section of our site with our latest news and releases.

The Junior League of Napa-Sonoma responds to short-term requests for assistance from the community that meet our mission and are within our interest areas, but outside the formal project development process. The following services are available:
Done-In-A-Day (DIAD)
Short-term League assistance is available through Done-In-A-Day (DIAD). Done-In-A-Day is a service that provides limited funding and volunteers in response to community needs in a high-impact, low-cost manner. These projects average between two and twelve hours and use between six to twenty volunteers.
Financial Aid to Non-profit Organizations
Financial aid is made available to non-profit organizations for the enhancement of volunteer programs through the Community Projects Committee.
