The Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) was created by the 1981 Virginia General Assembly. State tax credits are available to encourage donors to contribute directly to qualified non-profit agencies, such as the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. In addition to the state credit, the donor may also claim the charitable donation on federal taxes to the extent allowed by law.
The Food Bank applies annually and is awarded allocations based on proven operational success and on our capacity to serve impoverished people. To participate and apply to participate in this program, please use the forms below, which will be available on this web page starting on July 1. Forms can be sent to our Headquarters by mail or by email on July 1 or later using the address below.
2025 Forms will be posted here once they are made available to us, typically on July 1.
*Important for Monthly Donors: Please leave blank the date of your first and last donations on the CNF-E Application form. We will fill in this information when your last qualifying monthly gift has been received and before we submit your forms to the state.*
