The Children’s Foundation of Guelph and Wellington has been selected by 25 locations across the Guelph and Wellington area and proceeds from Smile Cookie week will help support nearly 100 local student nutrition programs.

“Every year, Tim Hortons restaurant owners across Canada come together with team members and guests to make an incredible impact in their local communities with the annual Smile Cookie campaign,” stated Tim Hortons president Axel Schwan.

“Generous guests helped us raise nearly $18.8 million last year. We invite all Canadians to join us in our restaurants to support Smile Cookie week.”

Guests can visit their local Tim Hortons or place an order through the Tims app for delivery. 

Pre-orders can be placed for a select number of locations through the Children’s Foundation website at childrensfoundation.org/smilecookie. Last year, the Smile Cookie campaign raised over $157,000 for the Children’s Foundation’s Keep Kids Fed At School program, which equates to nearly 63,000 snacks and meals for local students.
