Hamilton Food Share

We believe no child should go to bed hungry. Last year, Hamilton Food Share distributed almost 4.4 million pounds of food to 20 hunger relief programs, food banks & hot meal programs operating in neighbourhoods across the city. For over 30 years, Hamilton Food Share has been the emergency food acquisition and distribution hub for the city of Hamilton’s Emergency Food Network dedicated to providing nutritious food to people living in poverty.

Tim Hortons® Foundation Camps

Tim Hortons® Foundation Camps is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 1974 to expand the horizon of what is possible for young people. A leader in youth development programming, Tims Camps support youth from low-income homes between the ages of 12 to 16 – an important developmental time that helps shape who they will become as adults. Through a multi-year, camp-based program, youth learn skills like leadership, resilience and responsibility, which empower them to believe in their potential. With seven camps in North America that run year-round Summer and School Programs, youth are supported to thrive when they return home, to excel in post-secondary education, to succeed at work and to contribute positively to their communities. More than 300,000 kids have attended a Foundation camp at no cost to them or their families.
