An Austin man is seeking donations to help secure a source of fundraising for the Shriner’s Children’s Hospital.

Brad McBeain is asking residents to help raise $10,000 to fund modified trailers used to collect and recycle pop cans.

The money from the recycled cans is sent to the Shriner’s Children’s hospital.
