Fall Community Fundraiser Shredding Event
It’s been a few weeks since our twice-annual Community Shredding and CHATS Fundraiser, but we are still hearing back from clients and community members who express appreciation for the opportunity to bring their documents for shredding so conveniently.
It’s hard to decide which is my favourite part of this fun day: seeing so many familiar faces or raising money for a very worthwhile cause. Because I have a “both/and” mindset I will say both! It’s also a great feeling knowing that 2100 pounds of documents were directed toward post-consumer recycled paper products (read, toilet paper) and over $800 was donated.
Great job to everyone! And shout out to our intrepid shredding truck provisioner, Ian of Carbon Neutral Shredding, for his amazing customer service!
Our next Shredding Event Is on May 11th 2024 For Richmond Hill & Markham. Time & Venuea are yet to be decided.
