A Christmas Food Collection initiative has been launched by HSBC Malta on behalf of Caritas Malta and Foodbank Lifeline Foundation to collect food for hundreds of families who are facing difficulties.

A Food Collection Point will be placed at each of the bank’s branches and its Qormi Head Office from today, into which customers and employees can deposit their food donations.

The Bank explained that, throughout the past few months, and in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, both Caritas and Foodbank Malta have seen a significant increase in the number of individuals and families needing assistance on a weekly basis.

Although the numbers have stabilised somewhat in more recent times, they are still well above pre-pandemic levels and therefore, the need to collect food this festive season, is much greater than in previous years.
