ANV will receive donated 5 cent bag credits from partner Whole Foods Oakland starting today until January 15!

Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project (ANV) is proud to announce they will be the sole partner and recipient of Whole Foods Oakland’s Nickels for Non-Profits Program. From today, September 26, until January 15, 2017 every time a customer checks out at Whole Foods (230 Bay Place, Oakland, CA 94612), they have the option of donating their 5-cent reusable bag credit to Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project. It has never been easier to support local people and the planet!

Funds from Whole Food’s generous partnership will support ANV’s programs like Camp ANV and ANV After-School Program, which offer vital services in education, child care, economic empowerment, financial literacy, and access to healthy food to a community sorely lacking in these areas. ANV’s programs have inspired over 3,000 local, at-risk youth and families to focus on nutrition, sustainable living, and activities that promote wellness and improve the quality of life in the neighborhood through our farm and programming. For more information about ANV, how to enroll your children in our programs, or how to get involved, go to www.anvfarm.org.

And don’t forget to tell your cashier you want to pass on your $.05 reusable bag credit to Acta Non Verba!
