Local Tim Hortons franchises raised $120,906 across Greater Sudbury this year with the annual sale of Smile Cookies, all the proceeds of which are returned back to the community through donations to charities and organizations.
This year, proceeds were shared by the Sudbury Hospice Foundation, Sudbury Food Bank, Health Sciences North Foundation and the CTV/Lions' Children's Christmas Telethon.
