Thanks to the incredible generosity of our amazing community, Tim Hortons Dauphin is beyond excited to share that an astonishing $8,724 was raised through this winter's Smile Cookies campaign.

That’s right— $8,724, all raised by you. Your support has been nothing short of incredible.

To capture the moment, Darren Edie and Jean-Louis Guillas were on hand to take a photo with the giant cheque, celebrating this monumental achievement alongside the community that made it all happen.

So, where will these funds go? Every penny will be donated to two fantastic causes that make a real difference: the Rotary Club of Dauphin, which supports local initiatives and the Tim Hortons Foundation Camps, which help provide life-changing opportunities for youth across Canada.

Great job Dauphin, everyone deserves a pat on the back.
