Tim Horton's Camp Day is on Wednesday, June 2, when every penny from coffee sales at Tim Horton's restaurants is donated to the Tim Horton Children's Foundation. On Camp Day, customers can buy a coffee and help send more than 14,000 children 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. All the children are selected by Tim Horton's store owners who work closely with local youth organizations and schools to identify children who would most benefit from an experience at camp. "The support that we receive from Tim Horton's customers every year is overwhelming," said President Bill Moir, Tim Horton Children's Foundation. "They're helping make a huge difference in the life of so many children. For many, a camp experience is their first time away from home and it's life changing. Shy kids become confident, scared kids become brave. The experience inspires them for years to come." During their time at camp, children 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.
