By Rosalind Russell – This year’s Smile Cookie Campaign on Manitoulin Island and along the North Shore has been a resounding success.
Although there are still some donations coming in, Tim Hortons in our area have raised nearly $55,000 through the annual cookie campaign.
One hundred percent of the proceeds stay within the local communities.
The funds raised in Elliot Lake will go to the Elliot Lake Lions Club, Blind River funding to the North Shore Health Network, the Food Manitoulin initiative thanks to the effort out of the Little Current franchise and supporting the Espanola Helping Hand Food Bank with the funds raised in Espanola and McKerrow.

During the recent Tim Horton’s Smile Cookie Campaign in support of the local food bank, Noella was at the McKerrow store every morning at 8:30 a.m. getting everything ready for the decorators. She had trays of cookies ready on the tables and the containers with the fondant heated to the right temperature. And always with a smile! Appropriate for a Smile cookie campaign. Photo provided
