First National Bank Hosts Free Document Shredding Event

Once again, The First National Bank & Trust Company of Newtown demonstrated their commitment to combating identity theft. On Saturday, May 17, 2008, the second of four annual Shred Day events was held at their Newtown location. With identity theft on the rise, Shred Days were designed to promote awareness and provide the community an opportunity to protect themselves.

With up to 4 boxes of personal documents allowed per person, First National Bank collected 8,000 pounds of shred (4 tons), saved 68 trees and 12,000 gallons of water, making this event the largest to date.

"Unfortunately, old documents are a prime source of identity theft, even when they are thrown away,” said John Parry, President and CEO of First National Bank. “It’s a sad fact of today’s culture, but disposing of printed personal or business information properly is an essential requirement to keep your identity secure. We’re glad to offer this service to members of the community."

Shredding is provided by Titan Mobile Shredding of Doylestown, PA, a locally owned and operated organization offering secure, on-site document destruction.

First National Bank would like to thank all who participated in making this event such a huge success. For information on future 2008 Shred Days, visit http://www.fnbn.com/about/shredding.php.

Founded in 1864, First National Bank is Bucks County’s oldest, most established bank, with twelve branches throughout Central and Lower Bucks County. First National Bank is committed to local ownership, operation and investment.
