What we are up to!
Smile Cookies for Project Share
 
Tim Hortons has an annual campaign in with 100% of the receipts from the sales of their “Smile” cookies is donated to local charities.  Since it’s inception in 1996, over $111 million has been raised and donated to local charities and organizations selected by Tim Hortons restaurant owners.  Last year, Smile Cookie raised a record-breaking $19.7 million, supporting over 600 charities and community groups across Canada and in the United States.
This year the Rotary Club of Niagara Falls Sunrise contributed member time to help produce the Smile on each cookie.  Troy, Pam, Dennis and David were in the back kitchen pasting the eyes and smiles on the cookies.  Not every cookie had perfect smiles, but there were perfect smiles on us as we tried our best. Pam seemed to have mastered it way before David. (If he ever did!)
