FREE Shred-A-Thon on DECEMBER 5, 2020
This event, previously scheduled for October 17, 2020, has now been rescheduled. Due to COVID, we canceled our March 2020 event. We delayed the fall event while we scheduled the Kyrene Monte Vista Parking lot for the new date. Additionally, we also needed to schedule the SHRED trucks, some of which are just starting to do In-person events. And, we needed to understand how COVID-19 would impact our event.
We will have new procedures in place to ensure we are social distancing (please do not get our of your car) and follow COVID-19 Guidelines. All volunteers will be wearing masks and gloves.
The event will again provide free shredding, however, we do ask for food donations for the Kyrene Family Resource Center. During this time of COVID-19, there has been an increased need in our community for food. We love being able to collect food for the Kyrene Foundation and the Kyrene Family Resource.
There will be an on-site shred truck, in addition to two secure box trucks.
Join Shirley Coomer and Gregory Stainton of Keller Williams Realty Sonoran Living for their semi-annual Shred-A-Thon.

This Shred-A-Thon is sponsored by Shirley Coomer and Gregory Stainton with Keller Williams Realty. Additionally, they hold the Shred-A-thons each Spring and Fall. This is their way to give back to the Kyrene community. Also, Shirley and Gregory’s children attended the highly rated Kyrene schools. They are passionate about supporting the Foundation through many fundraising events. As local Realtors with Keller Williams Realty Sonoran Living, they know first hand how identity theft can affect home buyers. Buying a home is not the time to find out about identity theft. Therefore, it is important for everyone to be sure to securely destroy documents that contain any personal information.
Those attending the Shred-A-Thon are asked to donate non-perishable food. Additionally, the food is critical to helping the Kyrene Resource Center meet the needs of many of the Kyrene District’s families in need. Also, the Kyrene Family Resource Center is supported by the Kyrene Foundation. Additionally, The Resource Center is located at Kyrene de los Ninos Elementary school located at 1330 E Dava Dr, Tempe Az 85283.

Is there a limit to how many boxes and do you have to be a student?
No limit. We ask for one box/bag of food for each box/bag of papers to shred. Don’t have to be a student. Open to the public.
Will they shred while we wait or do you have to leave it to be shredded later?
