There are not many people that have not been affected by cancer these days. There is not a single day that does not go by that you do not hear about it and how it has affected lives. It is a horrible disease that will hopefully be cured one day soon. Until then we must stay strong and do what we can for our families and friends that have been touched by it.

This year SecurShred has decided to go the extra step and make it a mission to help “Shred” cancer. We have supported many causes and still do on a personal and a company level. This year, we as a company, have joined together to raise 18,000 for the Relay for Life. We have raised about 35% of this goal.

SecurShred employees have created a wearable pin to help show your support and to help raise money towards our fundraising goal. The pins are available at our headquarters in South Burlington and through our drivers. We have also created gift baskets that are brimming with goodies from tickets to sporting events to trash and recycling services. You can purchase a ticket or a book of tickets from our staff at SecurShred.

Though out the month of May we will be sponsoring and attending many events. The week of May 13th our drivers and staff will be wearing a new uniform to help promote our efforts to raise money for such a dear cause. On May 16th SecurShred and Ken’s Pizza will be hosting an evening to honor our cancer survivors. Ken’s Pizza will be donating a portion of the proceeds made that night. We encourage everyone to attend from 4pm to 9pm.

Other Upcoming Events are:

May 17th – Bark for Life in South Burlington.

May 18th – Shred Events in Rutland and Barre/Berlin with donations going to “Relay for Life”.

The week of May 13th and June 17th, all proceeds from walk-in customers will be donated to our goal of 18K.
