Description: We want to help you protect your identity.

I just wanted to say Thank you for having the shred-a-thon today, I had a large sack with old receipts and bills that needed to be shredded and was hoping someone would offer it. Thanks again and I am hoping you will repeat this again sometime in the future. Barb
