OAKVILLE, Ont. — Tim Hortons has brought back its iconic Smile Cookie in support of local charities, hospitals and community programs.
From Sept. 14 to 20, Tim Hortons customers can purchase the chocolate chunk Smile Cookie at participating restaurants, with 100 per cent of the proceeds being donated back to the community.
“The simple act of buying a Smile Cookie for $1 will have a direct impact on charities in your own community,” says David Clanachan, president and COO, Tim Hortons Canada. “Through the generosity of our guests and restaurant owners year after year, we continue to raise millions of dollars to help hundreds of deserving local charities.”
The annual campaign started in 1996 to help raise funds for the Hamilton Children’s Hospital in Ontario and has grown to become a major fundraising event. Last year, the campaign raised $5.3 million, supporting more than 350 local charities across Canada.
