Supporting our community and those who call it home
Our view is that our community deserves to share in the success we enjoy, and so we choose to give back whenever we can. Here are some of the worthy institutions, organizations and charitable causes we support.
Interfaith Food Ministry (Shred Event)
“Community involvement is a cornerstone of our team. Being able to support Interfaith Food Ministries and help provide food to families in our area through our annual shredding event is a highlight of the year.”
Please join us for our annual Community Shred Event on Saturday, April 13th from 10AM – 2PM here at the Owens Plaza. For a suggested donation of $10, we will shred a box or bag of your old paper and documents. Shredding is done on site and all the proceeds directly benefit Interfaith Food Ministry, helping to fight hunger in Nevada County.
Come out and show your support of this worthy cause!
