OAKVILLE, ON, May 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – Wednesday, June 1 is Tim Hortons Camp
Day! Camp Day is the one day each year when every penny from coffee
sales at Tim Hortons Restaurants is donated to the Tim Horton
Children’s Foundation. On Camp Day, when guests buy a coffee and
participate in various fundraising activities, they will help send more
than 14,000 kids on the camping adventure of a lifetime. Campers aged
nine to 12 years attend a 10-day summer camp session or a seven-day
winter camp session, at one of the Foundation’s six camps in Canada and
the United States. Children are selected by Tim Hortons Restaurant
Owners who work closely with local youth organizations and schools to
identify kids who would most benefit from an experience at camp. “It’s
overwhelming each year, to see how Tim Hortons customers come together
to support the Foundation,” says Bill Moir, President, Tim Horton
Children’s Foundation. “On Camp Day, buying a cup of coffee and
participating in the many activities helps give deserving kids, who
live in your community, an experience to remember and inspire them for
years to come. And that’s a good feeling.” During their time at camp,
kids participate in a wide range of first-class programs and activities
designed to build self-esteem and leadership skills. The Foundation is
committed to providing an enriched and memorable experience for
campers, giving them confidence in their abilities, pride in their
accomplishments and a more positive view of the world and their place
in it.
