Weichert, Realtors® – Pillar Northwest Hosts Free Shedding Event; Collects Items for Local Charity
BELLEVUE, Wash. / May 2, 2018 – A Bellevue real estate agency recently looked more like a recycling center after the company transformed its 36th Street parking lot into a gigantic shredding area.
The company, Weichert, Realtors® – Pillar Northwest, underwent the transformation to help local residents safely discard paperwork with personal or sensitive information as part of its April 21st Shred-A-Thon, a free event.
The Weichert® affiliate and its event partner, Guild Mortgage, also collected clothing and toiletry items, as well as financial donations, at the shred-a-thon to donate to Mary’s Place, a Seattle-based non-profit organization that assists the homeless.
“It was great to see so many people who live and work in the area come out again this year to take advantage of our free document shredding day,” said Lara Dunn, the broker/owner of Weichert, Realtors® – Pillar Northwest. “We were also excited to use this event as a way to help support Mary’s Place and everything they do to help the homeless. We can’t thank the community enough for its support.”
Weichert, Realtors® – Pillar Northwest is an independently owned and operated Weichert affiliate. The office serves the Seattle metropolitan area.
Guild Mortgage is a nationally recognized mortgage banking company with more than 250 branches and satellites serving homebuyers throughout the United States.
