Hibernian are supporting the latest fan-led foodbank collection, which will take place at the home match against Raith Rovers on Saturday 24 December.

Organised by Edinburgh Helping Hands, donations will be collected around the ground from 10am until kick-off. All food collected will be distributed to local causes in Edinburgh.

Supporters are asked to donate non-perishable items such as:

-tins of fruit

-tins of vegetables

-sugar

-UHT milk

-cartons of fruit juice

-tins of custard

-tins of creamed rice

-coffee

Supporters who are  unable to make the game but still wish to contribute  can hand in donations to the West Stand reception, or donate by visiting justgiving.com/crowdfunding/edinburghhelpinghands.

Generous Hibs’ fans have made a tremendous difference over the past two years through foodbank donations, and the club hope that they once again support the efforts.
