Nancy's Project

Baby to Baby is the best! Our deepest thanks to B2B for sending us four pallets of baby products four times a year. The latest shipment included diapers, socks and wipes. We include these items with our grocery distribution as they become available, ensuring that the smallest members of our farmworker families are taken care of.

Halloween doesn't happen without help! Nancy's Project thanks the residents of Carmel Valley Manor who organized and packed goodies for our farm worker family trick-or-treaters.

October 28, 2025 would have been the 107th birthday of Nancy Costello, founder of Nany's Project. She began finding ways to assist Salinas Valley farmworker families when she was just a young mother, and kept at it into her 90s, gradually bringing others into the effort with her. We remember her inspiring efforts with admiration and affection.

Fond farewell: Nancy's Project volunteers, with executive director Mike Hays, gathered May 22 to thank Libby McMahon for her invaluable service to our farm worker families during her term as Mike's predecessor. Thank you for everything, Libby!
