Visit the Napa Valley Give Guide before midnight on December 31 to help the Napa County Resource Conservation District raise $3,000 in 2014! All donors to RCD receive a bud vase floral arrangement from The Monkey Flower Group, and donors who give $50 or more will receive 5 small flower arrangements. Why give to the RCD? Your donation supports our work to restore habitat, monitor watershed condition, and provide environmental education to agricultural and urban land users. Cash donations support a variety of things, including scientific equipment, environmental field trip busing and supplies, office technology, or staff time. Less than 20% of their annual operating budget comes from County property tax income. The remainder of our budget comes from competitively-sought grants, contracts, and donations. RCDs are authorized by California Public Resources Code Section 9403 to receive gifts and contributions like any other research, educational, or public charity. Contributions to RCDs are tax deductible under Internal Revenue Code Section 170(b) and (c)(1) up to 50% of the taxpayers adjusted gross income.
