Kids from around town enjoyed the games and activies as Russell’s Tim Hortons held their annual Camp Day on July 15th.
Camp Day is Tim Hortons' biggest annual charitable event, where 100% of the proceeds from all hot and iced coffee sales are donated to the Tim Hortons Foundation Camps, which is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 1974 by Ron Joyce to honor his late friend Tim Horton.
For over 50 years, Tims Camps has been a leader in youth development programming, helping young people from underserved communities gain the skills and confidence to rewrite their stories for a brighter future, through experiences both at camp and in the classroom, youth build resilience, leadership, and responsibility, empowering them to thrive in school, work, and life.
Across North America, Tims Camps has provided life-changing experiences to nearly 350,000 youth – at no cost to them or their families.
This is made possible through the generosity of Tim Hortons Restaurant Owners, guests, corporate sponsors, donors, and community partners.
These funds help send youth from underserved communities to multi-year, camp-based development programs.
