Dauphins Tim Hortons will be hosting their annual smile cookie campaign next week from September 13th to the 19th.
All proceeds raised from cookie sales will go back towards community initiatives with the Dauphin Friendship Centre and the Parkland Humane Society.
Both organizations are asking the community for help to execute this week as they look for more volunteers.
Kelsey Bates of the Humane Society goes through what volunteers will be tasked with,
"We are looking for volunteers to do stuff like decorates cookies, greet people at the doors; and we are going to have some people walk dogs around the restaurant as well."
The Human Society will use the proceeds from this fundraiser towards their spay and neuter program.
While Gail Welburn, resource development coordinator for the friendship centre, talks about what volunteers can expect to do for the week,
"Decorating cookies, encouraging cookie sales with the folks at the drive-through, just a lot of fun different little jobs ."
Gail says that the food for thought program would be receiving donations from this campaign.
In conjunction with the week of cookie sales, a garage sale will be taking place at Tim Hortons on Saturday the 18th from 10 am - 1 pm.
