2025 Christmas Appeal

For over 14 years, the Foodbank Christmas Appeal has been bringing our community together to support those in need.

Driven by the amazing team at the Bay of Plenty Times and The Hits radio, this campaign has raised over $1.3 million in cash and nearly $600,000 in groceries. That’s huge! The donations represent anywhere from 30 – 60% of our annual donations.

But the need is still great, and we’re counting on you to help us make this year’s appeal the best one yet.
