Tim Horton's franchise owners dig deep to donate to families in need.
WOODSTOCK -- The holidays are quickly approaching, and while many families enjoy the season, many struggle to make ends meet.
Tim Hortons franchise owners have put in a significant effort to change that, donating $2,000 to the Woodstock Salvation Army to kick off their annual Tim Horton's Food Drive to collect canned goods for the Food Bank and Holiday Hamper program.
Vanessa Giuliano, Director of Community and Family Services for Woodstock says the programs are popular. "For Christmas we do about 800 children, so we do 800 toy bags every season. That probably amounts to about 400 families."
Robin Seabrook, an owner of a local Tim Hortons says "it is important to give back to the communities where we live."
The food drive runs from November 17th - 23rd, and guests are asked to bring in their donations to any of the locations across the city. The food drive aims to help replenish the shelves of the local food bank in time for the holiday rush.
Leslie Farrell, owner of Tim Hortons on Norwich Ave, says her regular customers have been incredibly supportive throughout the years the campaign has been in place, and thanks the community for their efforts. "We look forward to raising more than we did last year."
Donations of non-perishable food items can be dropped off in the donation bins at any Tim Hortons location in Woodstock.
