Tim Hortons annual Camp Day fundraiser has another successful year
Tim Hortons announced another successful Camp Day for its Tim Hortons Foundation Camps, having raised nearly $12.8 million with the support of Tims customers, restaurant owners, team members, and volunteers.
Tim Hortons Camp Day has now raised some $262 million in its history, which has supported sending more than 320,000 underserved youth between the ages of 12 to 16 to a multi-year camp-based program at Tims Camps. Campers are equipped with skills like leadership, resilience, and responsibility, empowering them to open doors to their future.
Every year on Camp Day, Tim Hortons restaurant owners donate 100% of the proceeds from hot and iced coffee sales to Tim Hortons Foundation Camps and raise additional funds through Camp Day bracelets, Donation Badges, and other unique fundraising initiatives developed by local Tims restaurant owners and their team members.
"Thank you to Tims guests across Canada and the United States who purchased coffee, bracelets, badges, or even went above and beyond and donated extra at their local Tims this Camp Day," says Axel Schwan, president of Tim Hortons. "Through your support, we're helping to change lives for the better by giving youth the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed with opportunities at Tims Camps."
"We are overwhelmed with the results," says Caroline Barham, president of Tim Hortons Foundation Camps. "A simple thank you does not even begin to express our gratitude here at Tims Camps. We could not be more grateful for the support of Tim Hortons, restaurant owners, and guests, and their dedication to our mission of empowering youth to achieve their full potential."
