Hotel Dieu Shaver Foundation's collection partner, Environmental 360 Solutions, is ending it's battery recycling fundraising program as of October 31, 2025
While we are saddened to see this program come to an end, we remain deeply grateful for the generous support it has inspired. Since its launch in 2010, this initiative has raised more than $200,000 to help purchase vital equipment for patients at Hotel Dieu Shaver. Just last year, the Battery Recycling Program raised over $28,000 - funds that empowered recovery, rebuilt lives, and restored independence for patients at Hotel Dieu Shaver.
This incredible initiative began thanks to Jack Sinke, a former HDS patient who launched the program after recovering from a stroke. We are so grateful for his vision, dedication, and generosity in kickstarting a program that has made such a lasting difference.
Thank you to everyone who has contributed over the years – together we have turned batteries into building blocks for recovery.
