It is now easier to donate food to the Tauranga Community Foodbank's Christmas Appeal as libraries across Tauranga have come on board as drop-off locations.
From today, people can drop off non-perishable food items at Tauranga, Greerton, Mount Maunganui and Pāpāmoa libraries.
Tauranga Library team leader Michelle Anderson said people liked to help and having libraries come on board as collection locations would make it easier for people who lived away from the CBD.
"We're part of the community so we're happy to support community initiatives."
