100% of Smile Cookie purchases will support more than 21 local charities in Tim Hortons communities across US
Every year, Tim Hortons restaurant owners show their dedication to supporting their communities through the annual weeklong Smile Cookie campaign. The annual campaign sees 100% of purchases from each $1 Smile Cookie – a chocolate chunk cookie topped with pink and blue icing drawing out a smile – donated to local charities.
Last year, more than $230,000 was raised to support 18 charities and hospitals across the US. Back again for its 26th year, Tim Hortons Smile Cookie week is a much-anticipated event in communities across the U.S. and Canada.
“At Tim Hortons, we take pride in being part of and serving our local communities,” said Axel Schwan, president of Tim Hortons. “As we enter our 26th year of the Smile Cookie campaign, we continue to be inspired to see Tim Hortons guests and restaurant owners come together to give back to their neighbors.”
To participate in this year’s Smile Cookie campaign, visit a local Tim Hortons restaurant or place a digital order through the Tim Hortons app and/or website. The Smile Cookie sells for $1, excluding taxes.
