Bay of Plenty Times staff will be joined by foodbank helpers and other volunteers to collect food from Tauranga neighbourhoods in the next three weeks. On Wednesday, the can drive will be visiting Greerton. The Bay of Plenty Times Christmas Appeal has so far raised $6622 for the Tauranga Community Foodbank in cash and donated items. "The appeal has really helped people have that psyche of helping others at this time of year." - Bay of Plenty Times
