Wood County Children’s Services offers paper shredding event to benefit children over holidays

On Saturday, Nov. 18, Wood County Children’s Services staff will be holding its sixth annual personal paper shredding event. This event will be held at Wood County Department of Job and Family Services, 1928 E. Gypsy Lane Road, Bowling Green, in the employee parking lot on the west side of the building.

Papers will be accepted from 9 a.m. to noon, or until the truck is full.

Wood County residents may bring up to five bags or boxes of paper items to be shredded on site and may observe the shredding. Residents are asked to provide a toy, gift card, or cash donation. The donations will be given to children who are involved with Wood County Job and Family Services to make their holiday a little brighter.
