Cans for Fines! Lose your fines and help the community.
Whakatāne District Libraries are accepting Cans for Fines from Monday 28 November to Sunday 4 December 2016.
Donate a 410g can of food to have $2.00 taken off your overdue fines. Cans can be delivered to any of the Whakatāne, Edgecumbe, Ōhope or Murupara libraries, and all food collected will be donated to the local food bank, with any pet food being gifted to the Whakatāne SPCA.
Please ensure all cans are not damaged or rusty.
You can donate as many cans as you like but once your applicable overdue fines have been cleared, no credit or cash will be given. The amnesty only applies to fines, not to fees or charges or lost/damaged books.
