Community
Partnerships
and Recycling
Hospice is committed to
supporting our
community non-profit partners and recycling as much as possible. All excess goods not sold
in the Shoppe are
donated to New Brunswick Community Living and sold to Value Village. The revenue earned helps
fund their many
programs and services for people with intellectual disabilities and
their
families. We also
have systems in place
for composting and recycling cardboard, metal, plastic and old clothing. We work hard to reduce the
amount of waste
sent to the landfill.
Thank
You
