The annual spring Shred-a-Thon was held on Saturday, April 17, 2021 in the parking lot of the Patterson Building on the campus of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest. This allowed residents to shred their old taxdocuments following this year’s tax filing.
Sponsored by the Wake Forest Purple Heart Foundation, all proceeds go to honor area Purple Heart recipients. An annual banquet is held on the first Saturday in August honoring recipients and their families. This date is chosen because August 7 is National Purple Heart Day.
The foundation wishes to thank all those who stopped by to donate and shred, and a special thanks to all our volunteers for their hard work to make this event possible. Donations are welcome and may be sent to PO Box 168, Wake Forest, NC 27588 or visit the foundation’s website at www.wakeforestpurpleheartfoundation.org.
