Tim Horton's Camp Day

Tim Hortons Camp Day is Wednesday June 5^th! Every time a guest buys a coffee at Tim Hortons on Camp Day they will help send more than 15,000 kids - who could otherwise not afford it - on the camping adventure of a lifetime. Thanks to loyal Tim Hortons guests and generous restaurant owners, last year's Camp Day raised a record $11 million, which will help send more than 15,000 deserving kids from economically disadvantaged homes on a once-in a-lifetime camping adventure.

All children who attend one of the Foundation's six camps are selected from within the communities where Tim Hortons Restaurants are located. Tim Hortons Restaurant Owners work closely with local youth organizations and schools to select children, between the ages of nine and 12, to attend a 10-day summer camp session or seven day winter camp session.

"It's overwhelming each year see how our guests come together support Foundation," says Bill Moir, President, Tim Horton Children's Foundation." On Camp Day, buying cup of coffee and participating the many activities helps contribute to positive change in child's life. And that's a good feeling."
