The Tim Hortons Smile Cookie campaign was a huge success, raising $16,910 in Kincardine, and $8,157 in Lucknow.

The 30th campaign ran from April 27 to May 3, with 100 per cent of the proceeds from Smile Cookie sales donated to the VON’s Ontario Student Nutrition Program in Grey-Bruce.

In Kincardine, the funds raised remain with schools in Kincardine to help provide nutritious food to all students daily.

The same goes for Lucknow, with the funds used to provide nutritious food to all students at schools in Ripley and Lucknow.
