DUBLIN, OH – Tim Hortons announced earlier this week that
all coffee proceeds generated tomorrow, on Tim Hortons Camp Day, will benefit
the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation (THCF), which helps send economically
disadvantaged kids to summer camp.
Last year, THCF raised a record $11 million in the United
States and Canada on Tim Hortons Camp Day, helping more than 15,000 kids
experience a Tim Horton’s Children’s camp experience.
"The mission of Tim Horton Children's Foundation is to
help break the cycle of poverty by giving economically disadvantaged children
the skills and mindset to aspire for a brighter future," said Dave Newnham,
vice president and executive director, Tim Horton Children's Foundation.
"We've seen time and time again that once a child attends our camp, they
return home with a more positive attitude and greater confidence about their
future. Our goal is to see more of that with more children. And,
Camp Day is our single-most important fundraiser to help make that
happen."
In addition to making a coffee purchase on June to benefit THCF,
guests can also contribute to the effort by the following:
- Text CAMP to 41518 to donate $5
- Visit sendakidtocamp.com
- Rent-a-Tent for a $1 donation in
restaurant
- Rent-a-Cabin for a $5 donation in
restaurant
The Tim Horton Children's Foundation operates six year-round
camps across North America and has served more than 180,000 kids
through its year-round programming.
