The Children’s Treatment Centre Foundation of Chatham-Kent says this year’s Tim Hortons Smile Cookie Campaign raised more than $66,000 to support local children and youth receiving services through the centre.
In a media release issued May 19, the foundation said the 2026 campaign generated $66,252 for programs and services not funded through government sources, including social work, therapeutic recreation and music therapy.
The campaign was supported by local Tim Hortons restaurant owners, including the Pritchard family and Mike and Paula Grail, who selected the Children’s Treatment Centre Foundation as the local Smile Cookie charity recipient.
More than 100 volunteers also contributed to the campaign by baking, decorating, packaging and delivering Smile Cookies from the Armouries kitchen throughout Chatham-Kent.
“The support we receive through Smile Cookie is truly incredible,” said Mike Genge, president and CEO of the Children’s Treatment Centre Foundation. “This campaign continues to show the strength and generosity of our community. Every cookie purchased helps provide important programs and services for children and families across Chatham-Kent.”
The foundation noted the 2026 Tim Hortons Smile Cookie Campaign raised more than $23.3 million nationally in support of more than 700 charities and community groups across Canada.
