For over 70 years, Catholic Charities of Northwest California has been a trusted partner in providing hope, stability, and transformation to individuals and families in Sonoma, Napa and Lake counties. Through times of hardship and triumph, we have stood alongside our neighbors, offering shelter, support, and a path forward.
As we step into this new chapter, our commitment remains the same - but our vision is bolder. We are amplifying our impact, deepening our partnerships, and ensuring that every person in our region has the opportunity to thrive. To reflect this growth, we are unveiling a refreshed brand - one that honors our legacy while embracing the future.
This is more than just a new look. It’s a renewed promise. A promise to walk with those in need, to uplift our community, and to continue building a future where dignity, compassion, and opportunity are within reach for all.
As we embrace this new chapter, we invite you to watch this short video that shares the heart behind our rebrand and what it means for the future of Catholic Charities of Northwest California.
A Reflection of Our Values
At the heart of our work is the belief that every individual deserves respect, care, and the chance to build a stable, fulfilling life. Our refreshed brand embodies these values with warmth, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose.
- A New Logo with Deep Meaning – More than just a design, our new logo tells a story - one of connection and belonging. At first glance, it’s a cross, representing the compassion and faith that drive our mission. But look closer, and you’ll see a path - one that welcomes those seeking stability and leads them toward a brighter future. It also echoes the open fields of our region, a nod to the farmers and vineyard workers who have long shaped our community. Just as the land is nurtured to bring new life, we too are here to cultivate hope, offering support and opportunity so that every person can grow and thrive.
Clearer Messaging, Stronger Impact – We’ve refined our language to ensure that every story we tell and every resource we share reflects the compassion and dedication behind our mission.
Amplifying Our Reach
Catholic Charities has long been a pillar of support in Sonoma and Napa counties, bringing hope and stability to those who need it most. As we enter this new chapter, our focus is on amplifying that impact - ensuring that the same level of compassion, innovation, and service we’re known for reaches every corner of Northwest California.
Through deeper collaboration with partners, expanded advocacy efforts, and a renewed commitment to those we serve, we are strengthening our ability to meet the growing needs of our region. To support this effort, we are excited to welcome new leadership to our development team. Kerri Beeker, our new Major Gifts Officer for Napa, and Julia Grunseth, our new Director of Major Gifts, bring a wealth of experience and passion for building meaningful connections with those who share our vision. Their leadership will help sustain and grow our mission, ensuring that no one in our service region is left without support.
Honoring Our Legacy, Embracing the Future
For decades, Catholic Charities has been a beacon of hope, standing beside those in need with unwavering compassion. Though our look has evolved, our heart remains the same. We are still here - walking alongside families seeking stability, individuals striving for a fresh start, and communities working toward a brighter future.
This new chapter is not just about us - it’s about you. It’s about the neighbors, donors, volunteers, and partners who believe in the power of compassion to change lives. Together, we are not just offering services; we are creating pathways to dignity, opportunity, and lasting transformation.
As we step forward, we do so with gratitude - for the trust you place in us, for the kindness you extend to others, and for the collective impact we are making. The road ahead is one we walk together, and because of you, that road leads to hope.
Thank you for being part of this journey. The best is yet to come.
