These events are free and open to members and non-members to promote the protection of personal information by destroying confidential documents through a recycling service. This service aligns with Honor’s commitment to supporting a green initiative through a handful of digital services it offers its members, such as mobile banking and e-statements.

The 2023 Free Community Shred Day schedule will be released early next year.
