Free Document Scanning 3/20

Springwire (the national nonprofit that partners with Solid Ground to bring you Community Voice Mail) wants to invite you to a document scanning event at the Downtown Seattle Public Library next Wednesday, March 20 from 1:00-4:00.

If you’re carrying around paperwork that is really important to you and you’d like to have a digital copy of these documents available in your email, please come to this event. We will help you make electronic copies or “scans” of your documents, and send them to yourself in email where you can keep them safe or share them with others as you see fit. At no point will we ask for or know your password, or have access to your documents.

We’ll scan anything that is important to you: photo ID cards, birth certificates, military discharge papers, medical paperwork, social security cards, photos of loved ones, and even that scrap of paper with all your contact information on it. We only require that you have an email address and a basic knowledge of how to access your information online.

The event is from 1:00-4:00 on Wednesday, March 20 at the Downtown Seattle Public Library, which is located at 4th Avenue and Spring Street. We’ll be on the 5th floor next to the free tax-preparation services being provided by United Way. Look for us at the Springwire table!
