Tim Hortons supports charity

13 years ago

    Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shops are gearing up for the seventh annual food drive supporting the Catholic Charities of Maine.
    Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop and Town Square Media have partnered to put on this program since 2005. Restaurant owners are encouraging guests to donate nonperishable foods throughout the week of Nov. 12. The donations will be delivered to Catholic Charities of Maine, which supports 24 food banks throughout Aroostook County.
    “We’re amazed every year at how much the people of Presque Isle come out and donate to ensure that their fellow community members have enough to eat this holiday season,” said Mercedes Melo, Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop owner.
    As an incentive for the community’s participation, on Saturday, Nov. 17, Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop is giving all guests who donate food items a free medium-sized hot coffee.
    Drop-off locations include, Madawaska, Houlton, Caribou and Presque Isle restaurants.
