The campaign will focus on Apple performing random acts of kindness supporting local, community-based organizations, which will include Fairfax County Fire & Rescue, Trails for Youth, Hopecam and many others. Apple’s work will be aired on WUSA 9’s morning program, Great Day Washington, as well as on social media.
Summer Shred Events Yields High Participation
Apple Federal Credit Union offered seven Shred Events for its members and community starting with the first one in June and the last occurring early November. So far, these events have yielded a 64% increase in participation and shred volume from last year.
The feedback received at each event is a constant and simple phrase: “Thank you for doing this. It is certainly appreciated.” Everyone drives away confident that Apple has safely and securely destroyed their important documents. Apple will offer its last Shred Event and Food Drive on November, 2, 2019 at our Winchester Branch. All donated food items will support the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank.
