Barcelona libraries to collect food and essential products for affected flooded areas in Valencia

The Barcelona city council has coordinated with Banc dels Aliments, the main foodbank in Catalonia, to habilitate 14 libraries in the city to collect food and essential products to send to the areas in Valencia affected by the floods. 

These 14 libraries are located in the ten districts of Barcelona and will be open from November 4 to Friday 8 during normal operating hours.  

Preferred products should be packaged and include: milk, canned goods and shelf-stable meals (legumes, canned fish etc.), children's food (porridge, milk powder, canned purees), as well as baby diapers and feminine hygiene products. 

The foodbank in Barcelona will coordinate with the foodbank in Valencia to manage the distribution of goods to the affected areas.  

Apart from these collection points, financial contributions can be made via bank transfer to the Banc dels Aliments in Valencia. The account number is:  

ES86 2100 2806 6402 0009 8998 

You may also contribute via Bizum using the number 38400 with the memo "donation."
