in the house of representatives
Mr. THOMPSON of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Community Projects, Inc., a local thrift store and non-profit organization, on its 85th anniversary of dedicated service to our Napa community.
Community Projects, Inc. is a cornerstone non-profit entity in Napa, California, governed by a dedicated Board of Directors and supported by a robust network of community volunteers, it operates as a 501(c)(3) organization focused on local community enrichment and support.
Since its founding on April 15, 1941, Community Projects, Inc. has grown into a dedicated band of more than 100 volunteers who have granted approximately $17 million in donations over the years to charitable organizations. Their primary source of funding is the organization's thrift store located at 715 Franklin St., which provides affordable goods to the community while generating revenue for local grants and philanthropic projects.
Community Projects, Inc. remains one of the oldest active non-profit organizations in our region, continuing to adapt its fundraising efforts to serve the evolving needs of our Napa community. The proceeds from Community Projects' efforts have allowed the organization to donate millions of dollars back to our Napa community through grants to other local organizations and scholarships to Napa County Schools.
Some organizations supported by Community Projects, Inc. include Mentis, Cope Family Center, NEWS Domestic Violence and Sexual Abuse Services, Girls on the Run, Project Napa Graduation, Can Do Pro Inclusion Napa, and Napa Wildlife Rescue.
Mr. Speaker, Community Projects, Inc. has done incredible work supporting our community for the past 85 years. Therefore, it is fitting and proper that we honor this organization here today.
