North Okanagan/Shuswap CrimeStoppers will host a community shred-a-thon this Saturday.
The fundraising event will held at the Piccadilly Mall parking lot in Salmon Arm.
It will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
People can have their confidential documents shredded on site by Interior Shredding for a minimum donation of $5 per banker's box of documents, says spokesperson Mike Remington.
All proceeds go to CrimeStoppers.
"Previous events in Vernon and Armstrong were very successful, and we expect to be back again in 2023," says Remington.
The events fund community activities such as presentations for seniors on internet safety and how to avoid scams.
