Shredding event starts at 10 today
GOLDEN AGE FOUNDATION
The Golden Age Foundation (GAF) will host a make-up shredding event today, March 11, from 10 a.m.-noon in the Clubhouse 2 parking lot. The March 4 shredding service was interrupted when a fire broke out in the truck, and then reignited. All documents left at the site on March 4 were ultimately shredded, according to the GAF, which sponsors the free shredding service.
GAF volunteers will be there today to help shareholders and guard papers until they can be shredded.
Social distancing will be strictly enforced, and shareholders must wear face masks when dropping off materials.
Shareholders should drop off their documents and leave to avoid congregating. There will be no chairs at the event, and no line will be allowed to form. Plastic or paper bags are allowed. Cardboard boxes, contaminated bags, printer cartridges, hearing-aid batteries and electronic devices will not be accepted.
For more efficient service, shareholders should remove all staples and paper clips.
The GAF has discontinued offering small battery recycling at this event. Battery recycling will be offered at another time, to be announced. People may dispose of household batteries outside the Copy and Supply Center in Clubhouse 5. A bucket is located in the alley.
The GAF is an independent, nonprofit, 501(c)3 charitable organization dedicated to serving the residents of Leisure World Seal Beach. Its purpose is to help make the community a better place to live. It was established in 1973 and is not affiliated with the Golden Rain Foundation.
All GAF programs are provided free to Leisure World shareholders. GAF is entirely staffed by volunteers, so all contributions go directly to meeting community needs.
The generous support of shareholders, residents, clubs, organizations and businesses is the main source of income for the organization. GAF programs and projects are made possible by the volunteer efforts of many members.
