20 Vintages -- 20 Years of Service -- Thousands of Lives, Changed

At the UpValley Family Centers we celebrate our 20th birthday this year, and we’re plenty pleased.  In 1999, a group of concerned citizens in Calistoga came together and formed what was to become the Calistoga Family Center.  Several years later and several miles down the road, another group of citizens did a similar thing, and formed the St. Helena Family Center.  What we know today as the UpValley Family Centers came about as a result of the merger of the two, in 2013.  And we couldn’t be more proud of what we have been able to accomplish, together.

Raise a glass of the 1999 Vine Hill Ranch to a ‘healthy start’, honoring the State grant that made the Calistoga Family Center a reality. Can you taste the promise that its founders felt for their community?

Where were you in 2004? When the grapes for the Grace Family Cabernet were ripening, the St. Helena Family Center was a dream about to take off.

Savor the 2014 Jones Family Vineyards Cabernet to celebrate the launch of UVFC’s immigration program, and the hundreds of people who have found a path to US citizenship through the Family Centers.

And 5 years from now, open that bottle of 2018 Rivers Marie Pinot Noir and toast the many 6-year olds who will start Kindergarten fully prepared for success, thanks to the UpValley Family Centers.

This collection of 20 bottles of wine, representing 20 vintages from 1999 – 2018, is a tribute to the UpValley Family Centers and the 20 years of support we have provided to our clients.

Like the vines that produced these wines, our roots run deep in the community.  And like these rich and luscious wines, our work is layered and complex and tells the story of a community that works together to create a future of opportunity, for all.
