Grafton Shredding Day supports adult literacy
Mortgage Loan Originator Teresa O’Malley brought in her dog Bodhi, held here by ALC board member Pat Marcus. “Bodhi brightened up the branch and really helped when we had to break the news to people that we were at full capacity for shredding,” Grafton Branch Manager Jon Coleman said.
Our Grafton branch partnered with the Adult Literacy Center of Ozaukee for our bankwide Community Shredding Day on May 7. The ALC held a brat fry fundraiser during the event, and also set up a table inside the branch to sell doughnuts and talk about the organization’s mission. “We partnered with ALC for a brat fry this past fall, but they brought in 50 percent more in donations on Shredding Day, due to the increased traffic,” Grafton Branch Manager Jon Coleman said. He said the nonprofit raised $535 and was “extremely pleased with the results.” More here.
