Events

One best practice to protecting yourself from identity theft is shredding papers with personally identifiable information. The Thrivent Member Network - Nebraska Region has coordinated several contactless drive-thru shredding events to assist you in securely shredding your sensitive papers.
Just by participating, you will be making a difference three-fold:

• The Thrivent Member Network – Nebraska Region is supporting the Arbor Day Foundation to plant two trees in Nebraska’s National Forest on behalf of each person that participates in our scheduled paper shredding events.
• Thrivent will make a $10 donation for each vehicle that participates to the highlighted nonprofit of each event. Maximum of $750 will be donated to each nonprofit. 
• Plus, know that your sensitive documents will be properly shredded on-site by Paper Tiger Shredding. Reduced waste in the landfills and reduced chances of identity theft.
