Shred Day at Smith Avenue

Who would think that shredding documents & collecting food go together? BankCherokee does, and we make it fun! *NOTE, these will be Drive-Thru Events this year!

Several times annually, we partner with Shred Right, an AAA NAID Certified shredding company, to shred confidential and sensitive papers free of charge for our customers. And we combine these popular shred events with a food drive. Rather than serving food, the FINNEGANS Reverse Food truck does the opposite. It accepts Food & Cash donations. Think of it as a food drive on wheels that works in partnership with The Food Group.

The REVERSE Food truck will be on-site with the Food Collection Barrels! Don’t forget to bring your donations to help stock the food shelves with non-perishable food, your cash donations will help provide fresh produce to community food shelves! We will have some small treats for those that join us, while supplies last. Again, this years events will be Drive-Thru Only, we will help collect your shredding & donations! 

Mark your calendars for the following shred dates:

• Saturday, September 19th, Smith Avenue branch, 9:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
• Saturday, October 3rd, North Oaks branch, 9:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

Gather up your paperwork. But bring more than those documents you no longer need. Show support by contributing non-perishable food items, as well as cash. BankCherokee matches all food donations you bring in. In addition, Finnegans profits support the Emergency Foodshelf Network’s Harvest for the Hungry, an innovative program through which fresh produce is purchased from local farms and then distributed to local food shelves.

Please limit your paper to two grocery bags or file boxes per person.
