Be sure to add cookies to your Tim Hortons order the week of September 13.
From September 13-19, Tim Hortons owners in Huntsville will be supporting Muskoka Seniors. When you purchase a freshly baked smile cookie at one of their Tim Hortons locations, 100 per cent of the proceeds will be donated to Muskoka Seniors.
“The past 18 months has highlighted the importance of community support organizations to deliver essential services to support our most vulnerable populations. Community services like Muskoka Seniors are needed now more than ever to reduce the strain on our healthcare system, emergency department visits, and wait lists for long-term care. The need for more community services and funding is undeniable and this fundraising campaign could not have come at a better time. The wellbeing of our senior community must remain top of mind for all of us as we move beyond the pandemic,” says Jenn Pfrimmer, Muskoka Seniors executive director.
Muskoka Seniors is a not-for-profit charitable organization working to serve the seniors of Huntsville and the surrounding area. Muskoka Seniors provides services to keep seniors independent, safe, and connected with the community while living in their own homes. From transportation to meal delivery service and friendly visiting, their team of staff and volunteers act as a client support system while offering caregivers and family peace of mind.
“We are asking local residents and business owners to go the extra ‘smile’ and order them by the dozens! Things these days have been heavy. Many people are overworked and worn out, but the simple act of sharing a smile can brighten someone’s day and let them know they are cared about! This week is a great opportunity to treat your staff, other businesses, your friends, and neighbours while supporting an amazing organization at the same time,” adds Pfrimmer. “And be sure to show off your smiles and tag us on Facebook or Instagram @muskoka.seniors and @timhortonsmuskoka.”
If you wish to pre-order Tim Hortons smile cookies, complete the form at muskokaseniors.org and submit it to [email protected] no less than 48 hours before your specified pick-up date at the Huntsville restaurant locations: 44 Hwy #60, 180 West Rd., and 1 Capstone Lane.

I was involved with Muskoka Seniors for almost 20 years as a member of the Board and also as Chairman of the Board….I have nothing but positive feelings for this organization…their mandate was established by Peggy Graham back as its Founder, in the ’90’s, and that has not changed since then….please help the Muskoka Seniors, either by buying a cookie or making a monthly donation to their cause. All of Huntsville, North Muskoka, East Parry Sound and Algonguin Highlands benefit from this great organization.
Would like to see the money go towards the purchase of an accessible vehicle. That would increase your clientele base by providing services for all seniors.
