Time is running out for the chance to get an extra smile with your coffee - and help support a local cause.
CHADWIC Home Program Supervisor Bonnie Ross explains the first ever Tim Hortons Holiday Smile Cookie campaign's underway, with proceeds raised from the cookie sales to be split between two causes.
Ross notes this coincides with the annual Shine the Light on Woman Abuse campaign, with purple ribbons up along Broadway Avenue and Mission Road, the campaign flag flying at the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre, and businesses and residents encouraged to put up purple lights and decorations for the remainder of the campaign, which continues through the 16 Days of Action on Violence Against Women, ending on Human Rights Day, which is December 10th.
